1. Drink water
If blood sugar levels continue to increase, regular water supplementation is very important. When the kidneys filter out excess glucose through urine, the water is also attracted. If the body is not hydrated, it will remove H2O from other cells to compensate, which can lead to dehydration and affect health.
2. Stop eating
Not eating until blood sugar levels drop can be a helpful way to stabilize blood sugar. Temporary appetite stopping helps prevent blood sugar from rising, while creating opportunities for the body to adjust and rebalance blood sugar levels.
3. Moving
One of the best ways to lower blood sugar is exercise, for example, you can walk or cycle for 15 to 30 minutes. Moderate exercise can help reduce insulin resistance. When cells are more sensitive to insulin, exercise helps put sugar from your blood into your cells for use as energy, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.
4. Manage your stress levels
When you are stressed, hormones such as cortisol and glucagon are secreted, causing blood sugar levels to increase so that your body has enough energy to cope with stress.
In that case, you should find ways to help lower blood sugar levels immediately. Try breathing exercises, relaxation or meditation...
5. Eat protein at meals
Protein is the key to lowering blood sugar because it stimulates the release of hormones that help insulin move glucose out of the blood and into cells more effectively. So try to include 20-30 grams of protein in your next meal and eat less carbohydrates.
