How to consume Bananas, Pears without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Combine bananas or pears with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of nuts, a spoonful of nut butter, or a serving of Greek yogurt. This combination can help slow the absorption of sugars.

Choose Smaller Portions

Opt for smaller-sized bananas or pears to reduce the overall sugar intake in one sitting.

Eat with High-Fiber Foods

Incorporate foods high in fiber, like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or oats, during your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon on your fruit. Cinnamon is known to help in moderating blood sugar levels when included in meals.

Opt for Green or Less Ripe Fruit

Choose greener or less ripe bananas and pears, as they tend to have lower sugar content compared to fully ripened ones.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support your body’s natural regulation of blood sugar.

Space Out Fruit Consumption

Instead of having bananas and pears together, eat them at different times of the day to prevent a larger spike.

Include Leafy Greens

Add leafy greens like spinach or kale to your meal. They are nutritious and can help manage sugar absorption.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Consider a short walk or light exercise after eating fruit to help your body use the sugar more effectively.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar responses to these fruits and adjust your intake and combinations accordingly.
