How to consume Orange, Strawberries without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume oranges or strawberries with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as almonds, Greek yogurt, or a small piece of cheese. This can help slow the absorption of sugars.

Portion Control

Keep an eye on your portion sizes. Consider reducing the amount of fruit you consume in one sitting to minimize spikes.

Eat with Fiber

Include high-fiber foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small salad with leafy greens when eating these fruits to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Timing of Consumption

Have these fruits as part of a meal rather than on an empty stomach, which can help moderate the rise in glucose levels.

Hydrate

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Adequate hydration can help your body manage blood sugar more effectively.

Physical Activity

Incorporate light physical activity after eating, such as a short walk, to help your muscles use glucose more efficiently.

Alternate with Low-Sugar Fruits

Occasionally replace strawberries or oranges with fruits that are naturally lower in sugar, like blackberries or raspberries.

Mindful Eating Practices

Eat slowly and savor your food to help prevent overconsumption and allow your body time to process the sugars more effectively.

Monitor Responses

Keep track of how your body reacts to these fruits in different combinations and settings to adjust strategies as needed.

Consult with a Nutritionist

Seek personalized advice from a healthcare provider or a nutritionist to tailor a plan that suits your specific needs and lifestyle.
