Limit glucose intake — we know it's important, but how? 🤔
The good news is that managing your glucose intake doesn't have to be complicated. Today, let's take a simple journey through G.L.U.C.O. — an easy way to remember healthy habits that support better blood glucose control.
🟢 G – Go for Low GI Foods
Choose foods that release glucose slowly into the bloodstream, such as oats, brown rice, wholemeal bread, and legumes.
🟢 L – Limit Sugary Drinks
Cut back on soft drinks, bubble tea, sweetened coffee, and packaged fruit juices that can cause rapid blood sugar spikes.
🟢 U – Up Your Fibre Intake
Fill your plate with vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes to help slow glucose absorption.
🟢 C – Combine Carbs with Protein
Pair carbohydrates with protein-rich foods to help reduce post-meal glucose spikes.
Examples: Oats + Nuts, Wholemeal Bread + Egg, Apple + Yogurt.
🟢 O – Obtain Daily Movement
Stay active! A simple 10–30 minute walk after meals can help your body utilize glucose more effectively.
