How to consume americano coffee, date without glucose spikes

Add Protein or Healthy Fats

Pair your coffee and dates with a protein source like a handful of almonds or a spoonful of natural peanut butter. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Fiber

Include a fiber-rich food such as chia seeds or flaxseeds with your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after consuming coffee and dates to aid in digestion and metabolism.

Choose Whole Dates

Opt for whole dates instead of date syrup or processed date products, as the fiber content in whole dates can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Limit Portion Size

Be mindful of how many dates you consume in one sitting, as limiting the quantity can help manage your glucose levels.

Exercise Moderately

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after eating to help your body use up excess glucose.

Include Leafy Greens

Add a small salad or a serving of leafy greens to your meal to help balance the overall impact on blood sugar.

Monitor Timing

Pay attention to the timing of your coffee and date consumption, spacing them out to prevent a sudden spike in glucose levels.

Use a Cinnamon Sprinkle

Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your coffee, as cinnamon can help enhance insulin sensitivity and control blood sugar spikes.

Stay Consistent

Maintain a consistent eating schedule to help your body anticipate and manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
