How to consume Pears without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Consume pears with a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, almonds, or a boiled egg to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small quantity of healthy fats like avocado or nuts when eating pears to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Smaller Portions

Opt for a smaller portion of pears to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Combine with Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-rich foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or vegetables in your meal to help reduce the sugar spike.

Eat Pears as Part of a Balanced Meal

Incorporate pears into a meal that includes proteins and complex carbohydrates, like a chicken and quinoa salad, to create a balanced nutritional profile.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal teas alongside your pear consumption to help your body process sugars more efficiently.

Opt for Pear Variants

If available, choose less ripe pears, as they contain less sugar than fully ripe ones.

Monitor Timing

Consume pears earlier in the day when your body is more active and can better process sugars.

Engage in Light Exercise Post-Consumption

Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after eating pears to help manage blood sugar levels effectively.

Track and Adjust

Keep track of your body’s response to pears and adjust your consumption and combinations based on what works best for you.
