How to consume Coffee With Milk, Sponge Cake without glucose spikes

Choose Low-Glycemic Milk Alternatives

Opt for unsweetened almond milk or soy milk instead of regular milk in your coffee, as these have a lower impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include a serving of fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds in your meal. You can sprinkle them over the sponge cake or add them to your coffee for added texture and health benefits.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, alongside your sponge cake. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of sugar and help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Reduce Portion Size

Consider consuming a smaller portion of sponge cake to minimize the sugar impact. Pair it with a protein-rich food like Greek yogurt to balance the meal.

Choose Whole-Grain Options

If possible, choose a whole-grain version of your sponge cake or bake one using whole-grain flour. Whole grains digest more slowly and help prevent rapid sugar spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before enjoying your coffee and cake. Staying hydrated can help your body manage sugar levels more effectively.

Include a Protein Source

Add a boiled egg or a slice of cheese to your meal. Protein can help regulate blood sugar levels and provide sustained energy.

Opt for a Darker Roast Coffee

Dark roast coffee has a lower caffeine content, which may have a lesser impact on blood sugar levels compared to lighter roasts.

Limit Sugar in Coffee

If you add sugar to your coffee, try reducing the amount or using a natural sweetener like stevia to minimize sugar intake.

Take a Walk Post-Meal

Engaging in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating can help lower blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake by muscles.
