How to consume candy sweets without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume a small amount of protein, such as a handful of almonds or a piece of cheese, alongside candy to help moderate blood sugar levels.
Increase Fiber Intake
Include fiber-rich foods like oats, lentils, or apples in your diet to slow down sugar absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and after consuming sweets to help your body manage carbohydrates more efficiently.
Limit Portion Size
Eat smaller portions of candy to reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.
Choose Dark Chocolate
Opt for dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa, as it generally has less sugar and more beneficial compounds than milk chocolate.
Engage in Physical Activity
Take a short walk or engage in light exercise after consuming sweets to help your body use up the sugar more effectively.
Monitor Timing
Eat sweets with meals rather than on an empty stomach to help slow the absorption of sugar.
Opt for Alternatives
Replace some candy with naturally sweet foods like berries or pears, and incorporate them into snacks or desserts.
Practice Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and savor each bite of candy to help you feel satisfied with less, reducing the likelihood of overconsumption.
Regularly Monitor Blood Sugar
Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating sweets to understand how different candies affect you and adjust your strategies accordingly.
