Limit the amount of buttered popcorn you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help moderate the glucose response.

Pair the popcorn with a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a piece of cheese. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include a small serving of healthy fats like avocado or a few olives with your snack. This can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Whenever possible, choose air-popped popcorn without oil and add a controlled amount of butter afterwards.

Consume high-fiber foods like carrots or celery sticks alongside your popcorn. Fiber can help in slowing down the digestion process.

Drink plenty of water before and after eating to aid in digestion and help manage glucose levels.

Ensure that your entire meal or snack includes a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to minimize glucose spikes.

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating popcorn. This can help your body use up some of the glucose.

Avoid eating large amounts of popcorn late at night, as your body's ability to manage blood sugar levels can be less effective during sleep.

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to help your digestion process and prevent overeating.
