How to consume protein hot chocolate without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate fiber-rich foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small handful of almonds into your protein hot chocolate. Fiber can help slow the absorption of sugars.

Choose a Low-Sugar Protein Powder

Select a protein powder that is low in sugar content to reduce the overall sugar impact of your hot chocolate.

Opt for Dark Cocoa

Use unsweetened dark cocoa powder, which typically has less sugar and more beneficial compounds than milk chocolate.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a source of healthy fats, such as a teaspoon of coconut oil or a small amount of avocado, to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Drink with a Meal

Have your protein hot chocolate as part of a balanced meal that includes proteins, fats, and carbohydrates to reduce the spike effect.

Use Plant-Based Milk

Opt for unsweetened almond or coconut milk instead of regular milk to lower sugar intake.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Add a sprinkle of cinnamon, which may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce glucose spikes.

Monitor Portion Size

Keep your portion of hot chocolate to a moderate size to control the intake of carbohydrates and sugars.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after consuming your hot chocolate to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body manage blood sugar levels effectively.
