How to consume Ice Cream without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of ice cream you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help prevent large spikes in glucose levels.

Choose Wisely

Opt for ice cream options that are lower in sugar and fat. Consider versions made with natural sweeteners or reduced sugar content.

Add Fiber

Pair your ice cream with a small serving of high-fiber foods like berries, chia seeds, or a sprinkle of oats. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Include Protein

Consume a small portion of protein-rich foods such as a handful of nuts or a slice of cheese alongside your ice cream. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Alternatives

Consider having frozen yogurt or sorbet that is lower in sugar and fat compared to regular ice cream.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity like a brisk walk after consuming ice cream to help your body utilize the sugar more efficiently.

Hydrate

Drink water before and after eating ice cream. Staying hydrated can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Savor each bite of your ice cream slowly. Eating mindfully can help you feel more satisfied with smaller amounts.

Timing Matters

Eat ice cream as part of a balanced meal rather than as an isolated snack. Pairing it with other foods can lessen its impact on your blood sugar.

Track Your Response

Use a glucose monitor to understand how your body reacts to ice cream, and adjust your portions and pairings accordingly.
