How to consume special k without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Add foods high in fiber such as lentils, beans, or chickpeas to your meal to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds. They can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Add Protein

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish. Proteins can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Be mindful of your serving size. Reducing the portion of Special K can help in controlling the glucose spike.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew and digest your food properly. This can prevent spikes by allowing your body to signal when it's full.

Exercise After Eating

A short walk or light exercise after meals can help lower blood sugar levels by enhancing glucose uptake by muscles.

Add Vegetables

Complement your meal with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to add nutrients and fiber.

Monitor Sugar Intake

Be cautious of any additional sugars in your meal or snacks to prevent unnecessary spikes.

Consider a Mixed Meal

Instead of just eating Special K, combine it with a balanced meal that includes vegetables, protein, and healthy fats.
