How to consume Classic Salted Popcorn without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit your popcorn intake to a moderate serving size to reduce the overall carbohydrate load.

Add Protein

Pair your popcorn with a protein source like a handful of almonds or a small piece of cheese, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Opt for a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a few olives, alongside your popcorn to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Hydrate with Water

Drink plenty of water before and after eating popcorn to stay hydrated and support digestion.

Combine with Vegetables

Have some non-starchy vegetables, such as cucumber slices or cherry tomatoes, with your popcorn to add fiber and nutrients.

Choose Whole Grain

Ensure your popcorn is made from whole grain kernels and avoid added sugars or excessive salt to maintain its nutritional benefits.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your popcorn to enhance digestion and prevent overeating.

Monitor Timing

Consume popcorn as part of a meal rather than as a solo snack to minimize spikes by combining it with other foods.

Herb and Spice Seasoning

Use herbs and spices like cinnamon or paprika instead of butter or sugar to flavor your popcorn without adding extra carbs.
