How to consume coffee with milk and sugar, pastry filled with potatoes and peas (fried) without glucose spikes

Monitor Portion Size

Consider reducing the portion size of the pastry and the amount of milk and sugar in your coffee to lessen the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Increase Protein Intake

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a boiled egg or a small handful of nuts, which can help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Fiber

Include high-fiber foods like a small apple or a pear alongside your meal. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar spikes by slowing the absorption of sugar.

Choose Whole Grains

If available, opt for a whole grain or multigrain pastry option, as these are typically lower in refined carbohydrates and can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Use Natural Sweeteners

Substitute sugar in your coffee with a natural, low-carbohydrate sweetener like stevia or erythritol, which can provide sweetness without affecting blood sugar significantly.

Balance with Veggies

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables, such as cucumbers or a small salad, to your meal. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and provide additional fiber and nutrients.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body process carbohydrates more efficiently and may help reduce blood sugar spikes.

Spread Out Carbohydrate Intake

Instead of consuming your coffee and pastry all at once, consider spreading out your consumption over a longer period to avoid a sharp spike in blood sugar.

Be Active Post-Meal

Take a short walk after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the carbohydrates and help prevent overeating, which can contribute to glucose spikes.
