How to consume Ice Pop without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Eating your ice pop alongside a source of protein or healthy fats, such as nuts or cheese, can help slow down glucose absorption.

Choose a Smaller Portion

Opt for a smaller-sized ice pop to reduce the overall sugar intake and minimize the glucose spike.

Drink Water Beforehand

Having a glass of water before enjoying your ice pop can help you feel fuller, potentially reducing the amount of sugar you consume.

Add Fiber

Consider pairing the ice pop with a fiber-rich snack like a small apple or a few carrot sticks to help moderate the sugar absorption rate.

Exercise Post-Consumption

Engage in light exercise, such as a short walk or gentle stretching, after enjoying your treat to help your muscles absorb glucose more effectively.

Homemade Low-Sugar Ice Pops

Make your own ice pops at home using fresh fruits like berries or kiwi, which have a lower impact on glucose levels.

Eat in the Afternoon

Consuming your ice pop earlier in the day when your body is more insulin-sensitive can help manage glucose spikes better.

Monitor and Adjust Timing

Pay attention to how your body reacts and adjust your eating schedule accordingly, perhaps consuming the ice pop as part of a larger meal rather than as a standalone snack.
