How to consume Cheese, Crackers without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as turkey slices or chicken breast to your cheese and crackers. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grain Crackers

Opt for whole grain or multigrain crackers, which typically have more fiber than regular crackers. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts. Healthy fats can help reduce the rate of glucose absorption.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the amount of cheese and crackers you consume. Smaller portions can help in managing blood sugar spikes.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate raw veggies like cucumber slices, bell peppers, or cherry tomatoes. They add bulk without significantly increasing carbohydrate intake.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or an unsweetened beverage alongside your snack to help with digestion and overall metabolism.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can enhance digestion and improve the body's ability to regulate blood sugar.

Consider Timing

If possible, have your cheese and crackers as part of a meal rather than as a standalone snack. This helps integrate them into a more balanced consumption of nutrients.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Sprinkle a little cinnamon on your snack. Some studies suggest that cinnamon may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after eating. Exercise can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.
