How to consume coffee, coffee with milk without glucose spikes

Choose Unsweetened Alternatives

Opt for unsweetened coffee or use natural, low-calorie sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit instead of sugar to avoid additional glucose spikes.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle a dash of cinnamon in your coffee. It not only adds flavor but may also help in regulating blood sugar levels.

Use Whole Milk or Plant-Based Milk

Substitute regular milk with whole milk, almond milk, or soy milk, as these options can cause a slower rise in blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Protein

Pair your coffee with a small protein-rich snack like a handful of nuts or a boiled egg to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Consider adding a teaspoon of coconut oil or a small amount of unsalted butter to your coffee, which can promote a more gradual absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Drink with Meals

Consume your coffee alongside a balanced meal that includes fiber, protein, and healthy fats to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Limit High-Carb Additions

Avoid adding flavored syrups or consuming pastries with your coffee, as these can contribute to higher glucose spikes.

Hydrate

Drink a glass of water before or after your coffee to stay hydrated and help your body process sugar more efficiently.

Consider Decaf

If caffeine affects your blood sugar levels, try switching to decaffeinated coffee to see if it reduces spikes.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Keep an eye on your coffee and milk portions to ensure you're not consuming larger amounts than needed, which can contribute to glucose spikes.
