How to consume hard candies without glucose spikes

Pair with Nuts or Seeds

Consuming a small portion of nuts or seeds, like almonds or sunflower seeds, alongside hard candies can help slow the absorption of sugar.

Eat Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-rich foods in your diet, such as oatmeal or lentils, which can help moderate blood sugar levels when consumed with or after hard candies.

Hydrate with Water

Drink a glass of water while consuming hard candies, which may help dilute the sugar and aid in its digestion.

Practice Portion Control

Limit the number of hard candies you consume at one time to minimize the impact on your blood sugar.

Add a Protein Source

Eating a protein-rich snack, like Greek yogurt or a boiled egg, can help counterbalance the sugar from the candies.

Chew Slowly

Take your time to savor the hard candies, allowing your body more time to process the sugar gradually.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk after eating candies, to help manage blood sugar levels.

Have a Balanced Meal

Before consuming hard candies, have a balanced meal containing whole grains or legumes that can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Dark Chocolate

If possible, opt for a piece of dark chocolate over hard candies, as it typically contains less sugar and provides additional health benefits.
