How to consume tea (lemon flavored, instant powder, with added ascorbic acid, sweetened with sugar) without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein with your tea, such as a handful of nuts or a boiled egg. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or a small portion of oats with your meal. Fiber can aid in moderating blood sugar spikes.

Use Natural Sweeteners

Consider replacing some of the sugar in your tea with natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit that have minimal impact on blood sugar.

Drink with a Meal

Have your tea alongside a balanced meal that includes healthy fats, proteins, and complex carbohydrates to help control glucose levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fat like avocado slices or a small portion of nuts to your snack when drinking the tea. Healthy fats can help slow sugar absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help regulate blood sugar levels and reduce the impact of sugary drinks.

Limit Portion Size

Reduce the serving size of the instant tea powder to minimize the sugar intake per serving.

Choose Whole Fruits

If you're looking for additional flavor, consider adding slices of fresh lemon or other low-sugar fruits to your tea, instead of relying solely on instant powders.

Practice Mindful Eating

Drink your tea slowly and savor each sip, which can help you become more aware of your body’s response to sugar.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after consuming the tea to help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.
