Reduce the size of your bagel and cream cheese serving to help minimize the glucose spike.

Choose a whole grain bagel instead of a refined flour one, which is digested more slowly.

Incorporate a source of protein, such as a boiled egg or a few slices of turkey, to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Add some vegetables like avocado or tomato slices on top of your bagel for added fiber and nutrients.

Replace some or all of the cream cheese with healthy fat options like almond butter or hummus to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Pair your meal with a glass of water instead of sugary drinks to prevent additional sugar intake.

Take your time to eat, allowing your body to better manage the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Engage in a short walk or light exercise after your meal to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Consuming a small amount of vinegar or adding lemon juice to your meal can aid in reducing the blood sugar response.

Opt for a low-sugar variant of cream cheese or consider making your own spread with reduced sugar content.
