How to consume Espresso without glucose spikes
Limit Portion Size
Consume a smaller quantity of espresso to reduce the overall impact on your glucose levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate a small amount of healthy fat, such as a handful of nuts or a few slices of avocado, to help slow the absorption of glucose.
Include Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair your espresso with a high-fiber food like chia pudding or oatmeal topped with berries to help moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If you're having a snack with your espresso, opt for whole grain options, such as a slice of whole grain toast or a small serving of brown rice.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as proper hydration can help with blood sugar regulation.
Add Protein
Include a source of protein in your meal or snack, such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a boiled egg, to help stabilize glucose levels.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to enjoy your espresso and accompanying foods slowly, which can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar response.
Opt for Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon on your espresso or in your meal to potentially help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.
Monitor Timing
Consider consuming your espresso after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to minimize its impact on blood sugar levels.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in regular physical activity, such as walking or cycling, to help improve insulin sensitivity and maintain better blood glucose control.
