How to consume high protein shake chocolate without glucose spikes

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a source of fiber to your shake, such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or psyllium husk, to help slow down digestion and moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as a small portion of avocado or a teaspoon of nut butter (e.g., almond or peanut butter) into your shake to stabilize blood sugar.

Add Whole Grains

Blend a small portion of oats into your shake for a more balanced nutritional profile.

Incorporate Nuts and Seeds

Add a handful of almonds, walnuts, or sunflower seeds on the side or blended into the shake to provide additional protein and healthy fats.

Use a Smaller Portion

Consider reducing the serving size of the shake to decrease the overall impact on blood sugar levels.

Pair with a Small Salad

Have a small salad with leafy greens and a light vinaigrette before drinking your shake to introduce slow-digesting carbohydrates and fiber.

Consume with Protein-Rich Foods

Consider pairing the shake with a small serving of low-fat Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for added protein that can help balance blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after consuming your shake to help with digestion and maintain proper hydration levels.

Time Your Consumption

Try consuming the shake after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to moderate the blood sugar response.

Monitor Portion Size of Added Sugars

If your shake contains added sugars, reduce them by opting for unsweetened or naturally flavored options, or by using a natural sweetener like stevia in moderation.
