Keep your serving size to about 3 cups of air-popped popcorn, as larger portions can contribute to higher glucose spikes.

Pair your popcorn with a small amount of healthy fats like a handful of nuts or a slice of avocado to slow digestion and reduce spikes.

Eat popcorn alongside a protein source such as a small piece of cheese or a boiled egg to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Sprinkle cinnamon on your popcorn for flavor, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Drink plenty of water before and after eating popcorn to help manage blood sugar and digestion.

Pair popcorn with a fiber-rich food, such as a small apple or carrot sticks, to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Consume popcorn as part of a meal rather than a standalone snack to minimize its impact on blood sugar.
