How to consume Banana, Guavas without glucose spikes

Eat Smaller Portions

Reduce the quantity of bananas and guavas you consume in one sitting to minimize the impact on your glucose levels.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein like a handful of nuts or a serving of Greek yogurt when eating bananas and guavas. This can help slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado or a small serving of cheese to your meal. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Green Bananas

Opt for greener, less ripe bananas as they contain more resistant starch, which helps moderate blood sugar spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after eating to support the body's ability to regulate blood sugar levels.

Eat Whole Fruits Instead of Juices

Whole fruits contain fiber, which slows down sugar absorption, unlike fruit juices that cause rapid spikes.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate foods like chia seeds or oats into your meals to increase fiber intake, thus helping control blood sugar levels.

Balance with Vegetables

Combine bananas and guavas with low-sugar, non-starchy vegetables such as spinach or broccoli to help moderate glucose spikes.

Monitor Timing

Consume fruits earlier in the day when your activity level is higher, allowing your body to use the glucose more effectively.

Maintain Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activities such as walking after meals to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.
