How to consume Coffee With Milk And Sugar, Upma without glucose spikes

Choose Low-Sugar Alternatives

Opt for unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk in your coffee as they have less sugar compared to regular milk. Additionally, consider using stevia or monk fruit as sweeteners which are lower in sugar content.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of upma and coffee with milk and sugar. Smaller portions will lead to a smaller glucose spike.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein to your breakfast like a boiled egg or a handful of nuts. Protein helps to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to steadier blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include vegetables or legumes with your upma. Foods high in fiber, like spinach or peas, can help slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, prepare upma using whole grain options like semolina made from whole wheat or add quinoa, which have a lower impact on blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Adding a small amount of nuts or seeds, such as flaxseeds or chia seeds, to your upma can provide healthy fats that help regulate blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Hydration can help your body manage blood sugars more effectively.

Regular Exercise

Engaging in regular physical activity helps improve insulin sensitivity, allowing your muscles to use glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating Practices

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help prevent overconsumption and aid in better digestion and glucose metabolism.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Regularly monitor your blood sugar levels to understand how your body responds to different foods and make adjustments as needed.
