How to consume carrots, cucumber (with peel), hummus without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of carrots and hummus you consume. Eating smaller amounts can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Combine with Protein
Pair your snack with a protein-rich food such as a small serving of nuts or a boiled egg. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate a source of healthy fats like avocado or a handful of seeds (such as chia or flaxseeds) with your meal. Healthy fats can help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Leafy Greens
Add a side of leafy greens, like spinach or kale, to your meal. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and can help balance your overall intake.
Space Out Carbohydrate Intake
Instead of consuming all the carrots, cucumbers, and hummus in one sitting, try spacing them out over a few hours. This can prevent a rapid increase in blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels and improve your body's ability to use insulin.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar responses to different food combinations and adjust your meals accordingly to find what works best for your body.
