How to consume milk, rusk toast without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of almonds when consuming milk and rusk toast. Protein can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as a small serving of avocado, a teaspoon of chia seeds, or a few walnuts. These fats can also slow down glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grain Rusks

Opt for whole grain or multigrain rusks instead of refined ones. Whole grains are digested more slowly, causing a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Enhance your meal with fiber-rich foods like a small apple, a pear, or a serving of berries. Fiber helps moderate blood sugar spikes.

Drink Water

Instead of milk, you might drink it with water or unsweetened almond milk. This can reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of rusks and milk. Sometimes, simply eating smaller portions can prevent a significant glucose spike.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat your meal. Eating slowly can give your body more time to process the food and can help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light activity like a short walk before eating. Physical activity can improve your body's sensitivity to insulin.

Post-Meal Activity

After eating, go for a gentle walk. This can help lower blood sugar levels by aiding digestion and increasing cellular glucose uptake.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals. This will help you identify what works best for you and make necessary adjustments.
