How to consume Tangerine without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Combine tangerines with a source of protein, such as a handful of almonds or a serving of Greek yogurt, to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Add foods like avocado or a small portion of nuts, which can help moderate the rise in blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Eat with Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber foods like chia seeds or oats into your diet. Fiber can help stabilize blood sugar levels when consuming fruits.

Smaller Portions

Reduce the portion size of tangerines you consume in one sitting to minimize the impact on your blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water can help dilute the sugar content in your bloodstream and assist in maintaining a stable blood sugar level.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your muscles use some of the glucose in your blood.

Choose Whole Grains

When eating meals that include tangerines, select whole-grain options like quinoa or brown rice, which have a more gradual effect on blood sugar.

Monitor Timing

Pay attention to the timing of when you eat tangerines. Consuming them as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach can reduce spikes.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating habits by savoring each bite, which can naturally decrease the amount you consume and help control blood sugar levels.

Track Blood Sugar

Keep a log of your blood sugar levels before and after eating tangerines to understand how they affect you personally and adjust accordingly.
