How to consume espresso coffee, ginger, yogurt without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of espresso, ginger, and yogurt you consume. Smaller portions can reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein with your meal or snack. You can add nuts or seeds to your yogurt, as the protein will help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with foods rich in healthy fats, such as avocado or a small serving of olive oil. These can slow down the digestion process, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.

Choose Low-Sugar Yogurt

Opt for plain, unsweetened yogurt instead of flavored or sweetened varieties to minimize sugar intake.

Use Cinnamon

Sprinkle a small amount of cinnamon on your yogurt or espresso. Some studies suggest that cinnamon can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Mix with Low-Glycemic Fruits

Add berries such as strawberries or blueberries to your yogurt. They are low in sugar and can provide additional fiber and nutrients.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink water before or with your meal to help slow the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.

Time Your Meal

Consider having your espresso, ginger, and yogurt after a balanced meal, which includes fiber, protein, and healthy fats, to minimize blood sugar spikes.

Try Ginger Tea

Instead of fresh ginger, try ginger tea, which might have a milder impact on blood sugar.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how your body reacts and adjust portions or combinations of foods accordingly to minimize spikes in glucose levels.
