How to consume Oat Cookies without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the number of oat cookies you consume in one sitting to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.
Pair with Protein
Consume oat cookies with a source of protein, such as a handful of almonds or a small serving of Greek yogurt. This can help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a source of healthy fats to your snack, like a small amount of peanut butter or a few slices of avocado, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for Lower Sugar Options
Choose oat cookies with reduced sugar content or consider making your own using natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit.
Incorporate Fiber
Accompany your cookies with high-fiber foods like a small apple or a serving of berries, which can help reduce the spike in blood sugar.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.
Hydrate
Drink a glass of water before and after consuming the cookies. Staying hydrated helps with digestion and can potentially blunt the rise in blood sugar.
Choose Whole Grain Options
When possible, select oat cookies made with whole grain oats, which may have a slower impact on blood sugar compared to refined alternatives.
Mindful Eating
Eat your cookies slowly and savor each bite, which can lead to better digestion and a more moderated blood sugar response.
Monitor Timing
Try to enjoy your oat cookies as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to help mitigate the rise in blood sugar levels.
