How to consume cucumber (with peel), watermelon without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein such as nuts, seeds, or yogurt. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a handful of almonds to slow the absorption of sugars.

Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods

Combine with fiber-rich foods such as whole grains, legumes, or vegetables like broccoli or spinach to slow down digestion.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body manage glucose levels effectively.

Portion Control

Monitor and reduce the portion size of watermelon as it is higher in natural sugars compared to cucumber.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as walking, after meals to help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to your body’s hunger and fullness cues to prevent overeating.

Meal Timing

Consider eating cucumbers and watermelon as part of a balanced meal rather than on their own to minimize spikes.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep a regular check on your blood sugar levels to understand how your body responds and adjust your diet accordingly.

Stress Management

Manage stress through mindfulness, meditation, or yoga, as stress can affect blood sugar levels.
