How to consume starbucks - cold coffee + milk without glucose spikes

Choose a Smaller Size

Opt for a smaller cup size to automatically reduce the amount of sugar and carbohydrates consumed.

Select Unsweetened Versions

Order your cold coffee with unsweetened milk alternatives like almond or soy milk to cut down on sugar content.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair your coffee with a small portion of nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, to slow down sugar absorption.

Incorporate Protein

Include a source of protein, such as a hard-boiled egg or a serving of Greek yogurt, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Limit Syrup and Flavorings

Request fewer pumps of flavored syrups or choose sugar-free options to minimize added sugars.

Choose Whole Grains

If you consume food alongside your coffee, opt for whole-grain options like oatmeal or whole-grain toast.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your coffee to help with digestion and slow down the absorption of sugars.

Monitor Portions

Be mindful of portion sizes both in your coffee and any accompanying snacks or meals.

Space Out Your Intake

Sip your coffee slowly or consume it over a longer period to avoid rapid spikes in glucose levels.

Add Cinnamon

Consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon to your coffee, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.
