How to consume espresso coffee, milk, oat bran without glucose spikes

Monitor Portion Sizes

Start by reducing the serving size of oat bran, as consuming a smaller amount can help mitigate a large glucose spike.

Opt for Black Coffee

Instead of espresso with milk, try having black coffee. The absence of milk can help in reducing the overall carbohydrate intake from your drink.

Choose Alternative Milk Options

Consider using unsweetened almond or coconut milk, which typically have lower carbohydrate content compared to regular milk.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal, like a boiled egg or a handful of nuts. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or a spoonful of chia seeds. Fats can also slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal to help with digestion and potentially lessen the impact of carbohydrates on your blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in a light walk or some form of physical activity after eating. This can help your muscles use up some of the glucose from your meal, reducing blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body more time to process the carbohydrates.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon into your coffee or oat bran. Cinnamon has been known to help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber

Add more fiber-rich, low-carbohydrate foods like berries or leafy greens to your meal to further slow the absorption of sugar.
