How to consume english banana shake without glucose spikes

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like Greek yogurt or a scoop of protein powder into your shake. Protein helps slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a tablespoon of almond butter or flaxseed oil to your shake. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Use Fiber Boosters

Add chia seeds or a tablespoon of flaxseeds to increase the fiber content. Fiber slows digestion and reduces glucose spikes.

Opt for a Smaller Banana

Use half a banana or a smaller banana to reduce the amount of sugar in the shake.

Incorporate Vegetables

Blend in spinach or kale for added nutrients and fiber without significantly affecting taste.

Use Unsweetened Milk Alternatives

Choose unsweetened almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk as your liquid base instead of sweetened versions.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon into your shake. It may help improve insulin sensitivity and control blood sugar levels.

Have a Balanced Meal Beforehand

Consume a meal with protein, fiber, and healthy fats before having your shake to help stabilize blood sugar.

Drink Slowly

Sip your shake slowly over a period of time rather than drinking it all at once to help moderate blood sugar response.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming your shake to help use up glucose in your bloodstream.
