How to consume Banana, Papaya without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein and Healthy Fats

Combine bananas or papayas with sources of protein or healthy fats, such as nuts, seeds, or Greek yogurt, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of bananas and papayas to reduce the overall impact on blood sugar levels.

Choose Less Ripe Fruits

Opt for bananas and papayas that are slightly less ripe, as they generally contain less sugar compared to fully ripe ones.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include high-fiber foods like oats, quinoa, or vegetables when consuming bananas or papayas to slow down the absorption of sugar.

Opt for Snacks with Low Sugar Content

Balance snacks with low-sugar options such as berries, apples, or pears alongside your banana or papaya to help moderate blood sugar responses.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water, especially if consuming fruits high in sugar, to aid in the digestion and absorption process.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in regular physical activity, such as walking or light exercise, after consuming high-sugar fruits to help utilize the sugar as energy.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite of banana or papaya, allowing your body ample time to process the sugars more efficiently.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of your blood sugar responses to bananas and papayas and adjust your intake accordingly.

Incorporate Legumes

Pair bananas or papayas with legumes like chickpeas or lentils, which can help manage blood sugar levels effectively.
