Opt for protein supplements that have minimal carbohydrates to reduce the likelihood of a glucose spike.

Incorporate fiber-rich foods such as lentils, chickpeas, or barley when consuming protein supplements to help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds when taking protein powder to provide a steady release of energy and blunt glucose spikes.

Eat non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or kale alongside your protein supplement to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Ensure adequate hydration before and after consuming protein supplements to support overall metabolic processes.

Distribute your protein intake evenly throughout the day instead of consuming a large amount at once to help maintain stable glucose levels.

Be mindful of the portion size of your protein powder to avoid excessive intake, which can contribute to glucose spikes.

If making a shake, use fruits like berries, apples, or pears that release sugar more slowly into the bloodstream.

If possible, choose protein supplements from sources like pea protein or hemp protein that are less likely to cause a spike.

Engage in regular physical activity to improve insulin sensitivity and assist in managing glucose levels effectively.
