How to consume Bananas, Oats without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Combine bananas or oats with a protein source like Greek yogurt, eggs, or cottage cheese to help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Add nuts, seeds, or a tablespoon of nut butter to your meal. These healthy fats can help moderate the blood sugar response.
Opt for Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of bananas and oats. For example, use half a banana or a smaller serving of oats to lessen the impact on your blood sugar.
Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods
Include foods like berries, chia seeds, or flaxseeds in your meals to increase fiber content, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If you’re making oatmeal, select whole grain or steel-cut oats over quick oats to ensure a slower release of sugars.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon on your oatmeal or banana. Cinnamon is known for its potential to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Drink Water
Ensure you’re adequately hydrated, as this can aid in the efficient processing of glucose in the bloodstream.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help utilize the glucose in your bloodstream more effectively.
Select Ripe Bananas Wisely
Choose bananas that are less ripe, as they contain less sugar compared to fully ripe bananas.
Mix with Vegetables
Add vegetables like spinach or zucchini into your oatmeal to increase the volume without significantly adding to the sugar content.
