How to consume Alcohol without glucose spikes

Choose Low-Carb Drinks

Opt for spirits like vodka, gin, or whiskey mixed with soda water or a diet mixer, instead of sugary cocktails or high-carb beers.

Eat Before Drinking

Have a balanced meal with protein, fiber, and healthy fats before consuming alcohol to slow down glucose absorption.

Limit Sugary Mixers

Use water, diet soda, or club soda instead of sugary sodas or juices in your drinks.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before, during, and after consuming alcohol to help your body process it more effectively.

Snack Wisely

If you need a snack while drinking, choose options like nuts, cheese, or Greek yogurt.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or carrots into your meals or snacks, as these can help slow glucose absorption.

Monitor Your Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the amount of alcohol you consume, as larger quantities can have a greater impact on blood sugar levels.

Practice Moderation

Limit your alcohol intake, as drinking in moderation can help minimize glucose spikes.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

A short walk or light physical activity after drinking can help your body use glucose more effectively.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of your glucose levels before and after drinking to better understand how alcohol affects you personally and adjust your strategies accordingly.
