How to consume Bagel without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Consider eating your bagel with a source of protein such as eggs, Greek yogurt, or lean meat. This can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Including healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds can help stabilize blood sugar levels, reducing spikes.

Opt for Whole Grains

Choose whole grain or whole wheat bagels, which tend to digest more slowly than refined versions.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Add vegetables or a side salad to your meal. High-fiber foods help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Limit Portion Size

Consider eating only half a bagel and supplementing your meal with other low-carb options like cottage cheese or a small serving of berries.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water with your meal as it can help you feel full and may reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Choose a Low-Sugar Spread

Use spreads like natural peanut butter or hummus instead of butter or cream cheese to reduce sugar intake.

Time Your Carbohydrate Intake

Consider eating carbohydrates after a workout when your body is more efficient at processing them.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat, as eating slowly can help improve digestion and reduce the speed of glucose absorption.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of how different foods affect your blood sugar and adjust your diet accordingly.
