How to consume Milk without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber

Consume high-fiber foods alongside milk to slow down the absorption of sugars. Examples include oatmeal, chia seeds, or whole-grain toast.

Moderate Portion Sizes

Limit the amount of milk you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help manage glucose levels more effectively.

Choose Low-Fat or Skim Milk

Opt for milk with lower fat content, as it may have a lesser impact on blood sugar levels compared to whole milk.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal or snack with milk. Options include eggs, nuts, or Greek yogurt, which can help stabilize blood sugar.

Monitor Timing

Consume milk as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own, as this can help mitigate spikes in glucose levels.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle a little cinnamon on your milk or in a milk-based dish. Some studies suggest that cinnamon may help improve blood sugar control.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day, which can help with overall glucose metabolism.

Regular Exercise

Engage in regular physical activity to improve your body’s insulin sensitivity and better manage blood sugar levels.

Use Dairy Alternatives

Consider alternatives to cow's milk, such as almond, soy, or oat milk, which may have a different impact on your glucose levels. Choose unsweetened versions to avoid added sugars.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of how your body responds to milk by regularly monitoring your blood sugar to make necessary dietary adjustments.
