How to consume valencias california oranges without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Eating Valencia oranges with a source of protein such as nuts or a small serving of cheese can help slow down the absorption of sugars and reduce the spike.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Add fiber-rich foods like lentils or chickpeas to your meal. These foods can help moderate your body's sugar absorption.

Limit Portion Size

Eat smaller portions of Valencia oranges to help minimize any potential spike. Consider having half an orange instead of a whole one.

Eat Whole Fruits Instead of Juices

Whole Valencia oranges contain more fiber and are less likely to cause a spike compared to orange juice.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can help with the processing of sugars.

Consume Citrus with Other Low-Sugar Fruits

Pair your Valencia orange with fruits like strawberries or blueberries, which are lower in sugar content.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as walking, after consuming meals. This can help your body utilize sugars more efficiently.

Incorporate Whole Grains

If you're having oranges as part of a meal, include whole grains such as quinoa or barley, which can stabilize the absorption of sugar.

Monitor Timing

Try consuming Valencia oranges earlier in the day when your body might be more efficient at processing sugars after breakfast or as a morning snack.

Practice Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite of the orange to help regulate blood sugar levels more effectively.
