How to consume sweet chocolate candies without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of sweet chocolate candies you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein

Eat the chocolate candies along with a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a small serving of Greek yogurt, to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Fiber

Add high-fiber foods like berries, chia seeds, or a small apple to your snack to help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Opt for Dark Chocolate

Choose dark chocolate with a higher cocoa content (70% or more) instead of milk chocolate, as it typically contains less sugar.

Hydrate

Drink plenty of water before and after eating chocolate candies to help your body process the sugars more efficiently.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming sweet treats to help your body use up some of the excess glucose.

Mindful Eating

Eat your chocolate candies slowly and savor each piece. Being mindful can help you eat less and enjoy the treat more.

Snack Timing

Have your sweet chocolate candies as a part of a meal rather than a standalone snack. Combining them with other foods can help reduce the spike in blood sugar.

Healthy Fats

Pair your chocolate candies with healthy fats like a few slices of avocado or a small handful of almonds to further slow sugar absorption.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after indulging in chocolate candies and adjust your intake and strategies accordingly.
