How to consume Honey cake without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Add a source of protein or healthy fat to your meal, such as a handful of nuts, a slice of cheese, or a serving of Greek yogurt. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include foods that are high in fiber, like vegetables or legumes. Adding a side of salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes can help regulate your body's sugar absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of the honey cake. Enjoy a smaller piece, and savor it slowly to help mitigate the spike.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity after eating, such as a 15-minute walk. This can help your muscles use some of the sugar from your bloodstream.

Consume Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Incorporate a small amount of vinegar or lemon juice in your meal, perhaps by adding it to your salad dressing. This can help lower the rate at which sugar enters your bloodstream.

Plan Your Meal Timing

Consider eating the honey cake after a balanced meal. Consuming it as part of a mixed meal can reduce its impact on your glucose levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, choose whole grain versions of any accompanying carbohydrates, such as whole grain bread or brown rice, to support slower digestion.

Monitor and Adjust

Track your body's response to honey cake and adjust these strategies as needed to find what works best for you.
