00:00Let's talk about dates.
00:01After fasting all day, your stomach is sensitive and ready to absorb.
00:05So the very first thing you eat directly enters your bloodstream.
00:08Imagine breaking your fast with something very high in sugar.
00:12That glucose rushes in quickly and your blood sugar can spike higher than usual.
00:16But remember, glucose responses are personal.
00:19Dates don't spike everyone the same way.
00:21And quantity matters.
00:23Five large medjool dates are not the same as two small ones.
00:26But whether you spike or not, don't eat dates alone.
00:29Pair them with almonds or walnuts.
00:31The fat and fiber slow digestion and soften the spike.
00:34So break your fast in a way that supports your body, not drops it.
