Since fruits are very sweet, they can increase the glycemic index in the morning. Here is a tip for eating it for breakfast without causing a spike in blood sugar.
We are often told that it is ideal to eat salty foods for breakfast… And This is above all to avoid raising blood sugar levels in the morning. Blood sugar is the concentration of glucose (sugar) in the blood. It is an essential indicator of glucose regulation in the body and plays a crucial role in metabolism. High blood sugar, called hyperglycemia, is often associated with diabetes or other metabolic conditions.
At the same time, whether it is advisable to consume fruit in the morning, we must not forget that they are full of sugar… which can therefore increase this famous rate. On the account Instagram “glucose goddess” who reveals daily advice on nutrition, we have spotted a tip for integrating fruit into your breakfast in a smart way.

Blood sugar: eat fruits with fiber to avoid blood sugar spikes
The account Instagram firstly reminds that fruits are sweet and juicy and thatjust consume them “accompanied” to lower the rate. Indeed, if you eat carbohydrates alone (bread, corn, couscous, pasta, polenta, rice, tortillas, cakes, bars, cereals, cookies, crackers, fruit, granola, oatmeal, hot chocolate, ice cream or any other sweet thing, digestion will increase the rate while this increase will be less if you add fiber, fats and/or proteins i.e. vegetables, avocado, legumes, butter, cheese, eggs, fish, Greek yogurt, meat, nuts , seeds.
This carbohydrate + fiber combination prevents the peak from falling 2 hours following eating, reduces the release of insulin, reduces the feeling of hunger, stabilizes mood and reduces the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
The example given is that of a mango eaten alone. Two hours following eating it, blood sugar levels drop more quickly, which sends information to the brain that you want to consume sugar once more. However, when this mango is consumed in a chia seed pudding, the fall is considerably slowed down.
