How to consume Protein Shake, Protein Shake without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of protein shake you consume at one time to manage the glucose response more effectively.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a source of fiber such as ground flaxseed or chia seeds into your shake. This can slow down digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats, like a tablespoon of nut butter or a quarter of an avocado, to your shake to help slow sugar absorption.

Pair with Low-GI Fruits

Blend low-glycemic fruits such as berries or cherries into your shake for added sweetness and fiber without spiking your glucose levels.

Choose Unsweetened Varieties

Opt for unsweetened protein powder and avoid added sugars in your shake preparation to minimize sugar intake.

Add Vegetables

Blend in mild-tasting vegetables like spinach or kale for additional nutrients and fiber.

Consume with a Meal

Drink your protein shake as part of a balanced meal that includes complex carbohydrates and protein, to help modulate the glucose response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as proper hydration can assist in the efficient metabolism of nutrients.
