How to consume Croissant without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit your croissant intake to a smaller portion to reduce the sugar spike impact.
Pair with Protein
Enjoy your croissant with a source of protein, such as eggs or Greek yogurt, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair the croissant with fiber-rich foods such as a small serving of berries or a side salad to aid in digestion and slow glucose absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before eating to help manage your blood sugar response.
Choose Whole Grain Options
If possible, opt for a whole grain or multigrain croissant alternative that provides more fiber.
Monitor Timing
Eat the croissant as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own, ideally earlier in the day to allow for better glucose management.
Engage in Light Activity
Take a short walk or perform light physical activity after eating to help your body utilize glucose effectively.
Be Mindful of Sweet Fillings
Avoid additional sweet fillings like jam or chocolate spreads with your croissant that can exacerbate glucose spikes.
Consider Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon on your croissant or coffee as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.
