How to consume Americano Coffee, Mung Beans (Mature Seeds, Sprouted) without glucose spikes

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Add high-fiber foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or leafy greens to your meal. These help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Drink Water Before Your Coffee

Consuming a glass of water before drinking your Americano can help dilute the caffeine and reduce its impact on your blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein such as eggs, Greek yogurt, or a small portion of nuts. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts. Fats can slow the digestion of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.

Choose Whole Grains

If you are having a meal with your coffee and mung bean sprouts, consider adding a small portion of whole grains such as quinoa or barley.

Exercise Post-Meal

A light walk or gentle exercise after eating can help your muscles use up some of the glucose in your bloodstream.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Keep an eye on the portion sizes of mung beans and other carbohydrates to avoid consuming too many at once.

Limit Added Sugars

Avoid adding sugar or syrups to your Americano coffee. If you need sweetness, consider a small amount of a natural sweetener like stevia.

Mind Your Meal Timing

Try to have your Americano coffee and mung beans earlier in the day when your body's insulin sensitivity is higher.

Stay Consistent with Meals

Eating at regular intervals can help maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.
