How to consume Fig Bar without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Accompany your fig bar with a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts, a hard-boiled egg, or Greek yogurt. Protein helps slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats in your snack, like a small serving of avocado or a few slices of cheese. Fats can help to moderate the impact of the sugars from the fig bar.

Eat with Fiber-rich Foods

Enhance your snack with fiber-rich foods such as a small apple, berries, or carrot sticks. Fiber slows down the absorption of sugars.

Hydrate Well

Drink a glass of water before consuming the fig bar to help with digestion and minimize spikes.

Incorporate a Walk

Take a short walk after eating to help your body use the glucose more efficiently and reduce spikes.

Mind Your Portion Size

Consider reducing the serving size of the fig bar. Eating less will naturally lead to a smaller spike.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, choose a version of the fig bar made with whole grains, which are digested more slowly.

Monitor Timing

Consume the fig bar as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own to minimize spikes.
