Take it one step further

To help keep blood sugar levels stable, aim to pair the produce on this list with protein and healthy fats. Think extra-virgin olive oil, grass-fed butter, avocados, coconut oil, nut butters, full fat cottage cheese and greek yogurt, etc.

For example, a bowl of yogurt topped with sliced kiwis & grapefruit, and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Or oven roasted brussels sprouts tossed in ghee and served alongside chicken or beef at dinner.

Get creative and find your favorite way to enjoy these seasonal goodies!
