How to consume starbucks - flatwhite, tall, 12 oz without glucose spikes

Monitor Portion Size

Opt for a smaller size, such as the short (8 oz) flat white, to reduce the overall intake of carbohydrates and sugars.

Choose Alternative Milk

Consider selecting a milk option with lower carbohydrate content, such as almond or coconut milk, which may help in moderating the glucose response.

Pair with Protein or Fiber

Accompany your drink with a protein-rich or fiber-rich snack, like a handful of nuts or a boiled egg, to slow the absorption of sugars.

Add a Cinnamon Sprinkle

Cinnamon can help in moderating blood sugar levels. Request a sprinkle on top of your flat white for added flavor and benefit.

Limit Added Sugar

Avoid adding sweeteners or flavored syrups to your drink, as these can significantly increase the sugar content and potential for a spike.

Hydrate with Water

Drink a glass of water before or after consuming your flat white to help dilute the sugar and support metabolism.

Increase Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after enjoying your drink to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Timing

Consume your flat white during or after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Experiment with Timing

If possible, enjoy your flat white earlier in the day when your body is more efficient at processing glucose.

Track and Adjust

Keep track of your body's response and adjust your choices accordingly. Consider using a continuous glucose monitor if needed, to better understand how specific foods and beverages affect your levels.
