How to consume Apple, Watermelon without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume apples and watermelon with a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of almonds. Protein helps slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small serving of healthy fats like a few slices of avocado or a sprinkle of chia seeds. This can help in moderating the rise in glucose levels.
Eat with Fibrous Foods
Combine these fruits with foods rich in fiber such as oatmeal, lentils, or quinoa. Fiber can slow the digestion process and lead to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.
Portion Control
Be mindful of the portion sizes of apples and watermelon. Eating smaller portions can help mitigate a quick rise in blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration supports overall metabolism and can help manage blood sugar levels.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle a little cinnamon on your fruit. Cinnamon has been suggested to have beneficial effects on blood sugar levels.
Balance with Vegetables
Pair your fruit with non-starchy vegetables like carrots, cucumbers, or spinach for a balanced nutrient intake that can stabilize blood sugar.
Chew Slowly
Take the time to chew your fruit thoroughly. Slow eating can aid in better digestion and a slower glucose absorption rate.
Exercise Regularly
Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine, as exercise helps improve insulin sensitivity and manage blood sugar levels.
Monitor Timing
Consider eating fruits as part of a meal rather than on an empty stomach to prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.
