How to consume Bagel without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Bagels

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bagels instead of refined white ones to slow down digestion and reduce spikes.

Portion Control

Eat only half a bagel or choose mini bagels to decrease carbohydrate intake.

Add Protein

Pair your bagel with protein-rich foods like eggs, cottage cheese, or Greek yogurt to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Spread avocado or nut butter on your bagel to add healthy fats that slow carbohydrate absorption.

Incorporate Fiber

Add fiber-rich toppings, such as chia seeds or flaxseeds, to further slow down digestion.

Add Vegetables

Top your bagel with low-carb vegetables like spinach, tomatoes, or cucumbers to add fiber and nutrients.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water with your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew and savor your meal, which can help prevent overeating and manage blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing

Have your bagel as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own, preferably earlier in the day when your body handles glucose better.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a walk, after eating to help your body use the glucose more efficiently.
