How to consume Banana | Water without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume bananas with a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a serving of Greek yogurt. This can slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.
Add Healthy Fats
Include a small portion of healthy fats like almond butter or avocado with your banana to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for Less Ripe Bananas
Choose bananas that are less ripe, as they contain more resistant starch and less sugar compared to fully ripe bananas.
Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods
Add foods high in fiber like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your meal or snack. This can help moderate the spike by slowing digestion and sugar absorption.
Eat Smaller Portions
Limit your banana intake to a smaller portion, such as half a banana, to reduce the overall sugar load.
Stay Hydrated with Water
Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, as proper hydration can aid in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
Add Vegetables
Include low-sugar, high-fiber vegetables such as spinach or kale in your meal to provide additional fiber and nutrients.
Exercise Moderately
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming your meal. This can help your body use glucose more effectively.
Consume Vinegar Before Meals
Have a small amount of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, diluted in water before your meal to potentially reduce blood sugar spikes.
Monitor Portions of Carbohydrates
Be mindful of the total amount of carbohydrates in your meal and balance them with protein and fat to help control blood sugar levels.
