Managing Sugar Spikes Naturally
Did you know that small dietary changes before meals can support better blood sugar control?
According to a study highlighted in The Indian Express, consuming around 20 grams of almonds about 30 minutes before meals may help reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes. When taken before all three major meals — totaling about 60 grams a day — researchers observed a noticeable improvement in post-prandial glucose response.
Almonds were selected because they are widely familiar in Indian diets and are naturally rich in healthy mono-unsaturated fats (MUFA), fibre, and plant protein. These nutrients help slow digestion and support more stable energy release after eating.
As more people focus on balanced nutrition and preventive wellness, adding wholesome nuts like almonds to daily routines is becoming a simple and practical step toward healthier living.
