How to consume Cheese without glucose spikes

Pair with High-Fiber Foods

Incorporate fiber-rich foods like whole grain crackers or a small salad with your cheese to slow down digestion and reduce the impact on blood sugar levels.

Limit Portion Sizes

Keep your cheese serving to a moderate amount, such as one ounce or a couple of slices, to help manage the overall impact on your glucose levels.

Choose Low-Fat Cheese Options

Opt for cheese varieties that are lower in fat, as they generally contain fewer calories and may have a lesser effect on blood sugar.

Add Protein-Rich Foods

Combine cheese with lean protein sources, such as turkey slices or a boiled egg, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Pair cheese with nuts or seeds, which contain healthy fats that can help slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal, as staying hydrated helps regulate glucose levels more effectively.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Keep an eye on other carbohydrate-rich foods in your meal to ensure they are balanced with the cheese and not contributing excessively to a glucose spike.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after enjoying cheese to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Add Vegetables

Pair cheese with non-starchy vegetables like cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, or bell pepper strips to add volume and nutrition without significantly affecting glucose levels.

Experiment with Cheese Varieties

Some types of cheese may affect you differently, so try various options like mozzarella, feta, or cottage cheese to see which works best for you.
