How to consume english berry smoothie, russian protein, yogurt without glucose spikes

Balance with Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber foods into your smoothie, such as chia seeds or ground flaxseeds, to slow down glucose absorption.

Add Healthy Fats

Include sources of healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of almond butter in your smoothie to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Use Low-Sugar Yogurt

Opt for plain, unsweetened yogurt instead of flavored varieties to avoid additional sugar that could contribute to a glucose spike.

Incorporate Protein

Add a small handful of nuts or seeds, such as almonds or sunflower seeds, to the smoothie for an extra protein boost that can aid in moderating blood sugar levels.

Choose Berries Wisely

Use berries like strawberries or blueberries in moderation, as they are lower in sugar compared to other fruits and can help keep blood sugar levels in check.

Limit Portion Size

Be mindful of the portion size of your smoothie to avoid excessive calorie and sugar intake that can cause a spike.

Enhance with Cinnamon

Consider adding a dash of cinnamon to your smoothie, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Drink Water Alongside

Make sure to drink a glass of water with your smoothie to aid digestion and potentially slow down the absorption of sugar.

Monitor Timing

Consume your smoothie as part of a balanced meal or after a meal rather than on an empty stomach to help modulate the impact on blood sugar levels.

Regular Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming your smoothie to help your body utilize glucose more effectively and reduce spikes.
