How to consume coffee (brewed from grounds, decaffeinated), oat milk without glucose spikes

Monitor Portions

Start by controlling the portion size of your oat milk. Even though it's a healthier alternative, consuming too much can lead to glucose spikes.

Choose Whole Oats

Look for oat milk brands that use whole oats and have no added sugars, as these are less likely to cause a significant increase in blood glucose levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a source of fiber into your meal or beverage, such as adding a tablespoon of chia seeds or ground flaxseeds, which can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Pair your coffee with a small serving of nuts or seeds, like almonds or sunflower seeds, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Protein Boost

Consider adding a protein source like a scoop of unsweetened protein powder or having a small portion of Greek yogurt on the side. Protein can help moderate blood sugar responses.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before consuming your coffee and oat milk can aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Add a dash of cinnamon to your coffee. Cinnamon is known to have a positive impact on blood sugar control.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood glucose levels before and after consuming your coffee with oat milk to better understand how your body responds and make necessary adjustments.

Timing of Consumption

If possible, consume coffee with oat milk with or after a meal rather than on an empty stomach to help moderate blood sugar elevations.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming your coffee. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels.
