How to consume Hot Chocolate without glucose spikes
Balance with Protein
Pair your hot chocolate with a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a small serving of Greek yogurt, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a source of healthy fats, like a few slices of avocado or a small serving of cheese, to your snack or meal to slow down the absorption of sugar.
Choose Dark Chocolate
Opt for hot chocolate made with dark chocolate containing at least 70% cocoa, as it typically contains less sugar and more fiber.
Control Portion Size
Drink a smaller portion of hot chocolate to reduce the overall sugar intake, thereby minimizing the spike.
Add Fiber
Incorporate a high-fiber food like oatmeal or chia seeds along with your hot chocolate to help slow down sugar absorption.
Use Alternative Sweeteners
If you're preparing hot chocolate at home, consider using a natural sweetener like stevia or monk fruit instead of regular sugar.
Drink Water First
Have a glass of water before your hot chocolate to help you feel fuller and potentially reduce the amount you consume.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming hot chocolate to help your body use up the sugar more effectively.
Monitor Timing
Enjoy your hot chocolate as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to mitigate the spike.
Experiment with Spices
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to your hot chocolate, as these spices may help in moderating blood sugar levels.
