How to consume Muesli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of muesli to minimize the glucose spike, and gradually adjust to see what amount works best for you.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein, such as Greek yogurt or a handful of nuts, to your muesli to help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Include Healthy Fats

Add some seeds, like chia or flax seeds, or a small amount of nut butter to your muesli to introduce healthy fats that can moderate blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for muesli that contains whole grains, such as oats with minimal processing, as they are more complex and digest more slowly.

Mix with Low-Sugar Fruits

Add fruits like berries or apples, which have a lower impact on blood sugar levels, rather than high-sugar fruits.

Milk Alternatives

Use unsweetened almond milk or another plant-based milk with no added sugars instead of regular milk to reduce sugar content.

Limit Added Sugars

Make sure your muesli is free from added sugars or sweeteners that can contribute to spikes in glucose levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add some extra fiber to your meal, such as a spoonful of psyllium husk or more fibrous fruits, to aid in slowing down digestion.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, chewing your food well, as this can help your body process the carbohydrates more efficiently.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar responses after consuming muesli and adjust the composition of your meal accordingly, making note of combinations that work best to keep glucose spikes in check.
