How to consume Hazelnut Spread With Cocoa without glucose spikes
Combine with Fiber
Pair hazelnut spread with whole grain bread or whole grain crackers to add fiber, slowing down the absorption of sugars.
Add Protein
Consider spreading the hazelnut spread on a slice of whole-grain toast with a layer of peanut butter or almond butter for added protein, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a few slices of avocado to your snack, as healthy fats can slow down the digestion process and help manage blood sugar levels.
Eat with Vegetables
Dip apple slices in hazelnut spread, as apples provide fiber and are less likely to cause a large spike in blood sugar.
Portion Control
Limit your serving size of hazelnut spread to a moderate amount, such as one tablespoon, to reduce sugar intake.
Time Your Intake
Enjoy hazelnut spread as part of a larger meal rather than a standalone snack, as the presence of other nutrients can mitigate blood sugar spikes.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after consuming hazelnut spread to help your body use up the sugars more effectively.
Hydrate
Drink a glass of water with your snack to help slow down digestion and improve overall metabolic response.
Choose Quality Ingredients
Opt for hazelnut spreads that contain less added sugar and more natural ingredients.
Monitor Blood Sugar
Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after consuming hazelnut spread to understand how your body responds and adjust your intake accordingly.
