How to consume cheerios without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a boiled egg, some Greek yogurt, or a handful of nuts, to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats into your breakfast, like avocado slices or a sprinkle of chia seeds, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Increase the fiber content by adding fresh berries like strawberries or blueberries, which can help mitigate glucose spikes.

Control Portion Sizes

Keep an eye on your portion sizes to avoid consuming too many carbohydrates at once.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, choose Cheerios that are made with whole grains, as they tend to have a steadier effect on blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before or with your meal, which can help in digestion and absorption of nutrients.

Eat Slowly

Take your time and eat slowly, which can help your body process the meal more efficiently and reduce rapid glucose spikes.

Exercise Regularly

Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine, which can enhance your body's ability to manage blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing

Try eating your Cheerios at a different time of day when you are less likely to experience a spike, such as post-exercise or in combination with a balanced meal.

Check Labels

Always read the nutritional labels to understand the carbohydrate content and choose a version with lower sugar content if available.
