How to consume Orange, Strawberries without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein like a handful of nuts, a serving of Greek yogurt, or a slice of cheese when consuming these fruits. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, a few olives, or a small portion of seeds like chia or flaxseeds. Fats can also help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Consume with Fiber-rich Foods

Pair the fruits with fiber-rich foods like a small serving of oats, a slice of whole grain bread, or some quinoa. Fiber can aid in slowing the digestion process.

Limit Portion Size

Be mindful of the portion size of the fruits. Eating smaller quantities can help in managing the glucose spike.

Eat Fruits Whole

Instead of fruit juices, eat whole fruits. They contain more fiber and are less likely to cause a rapid spike in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before or after consuming fruits. Staying hydrated can help in digestion and assist in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Vinegar

Consider having a small serving of vinegar-based foods, like a salad with vinaigrette dressing, as vinegar has been shown to help with blood sugar control.

Monitor Timing

Consume fruits at a time when your body is more insulin-sensitive, such as earlier in the day or around a workout session.

Balance with a Meal

Include the fruits as part of a balanced meal rather than eating them alone. This helps in moderating the blood sugar impact.

Keep Active

Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after eating, which can aid in better blood sugar management.
