How to consume banana, bananas without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats
Combine bananas with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of nuts or a spoonful of peanut butter. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add high-fiber foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your meal. These can help slow down digestion and the release of sugars.
Choose Less Ripe Bananas
Opt for bananas that are slightly green, as they have more resistant starch and less sugar compared to ripe bananas.
Eat Smaller Portions
Consider eating half a banana instead of a whole one to reduce the overall sugar intake.
Incorporate Low-Sugar Fruits
Include fruits like berries or apples in your meal to balance the sugar content, as they have a lower impact on blood sugar levels.
Consume with Non-Starchy Vegetables
Pair your banana with vegetables like spinach or kale, which can add volume and nutrients to your meal without causing a spike in sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before eating a banana to help with digestion and hydration.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in physical activity after consuming a banana to help your body use up the sugar for energy.
Monitor Portion Sizes Throughout the Day
Keep track of other carbohydrate servings in your diet to ensure that your overall intake remains balanced.
Eat Bananas with a Balanced Meal
