How to consume Almond cake without glucose spikes

Control Portion Size

Start by eating smaller slices of almond cake. Reducing the quantity can help minimize the impact on your glucose levels.

Pair with Protein

Consume a source of protein alongside the cake, such as Greek yogurt, a handful of nuts, or a boiled egg. Protein helps slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats into your meal by having a small portion of avocado or a few olives. Fats can also help reduce sugar absorption rates.

Incorporate Fiber

Add a side of high-fiber foods like a small salad with leafy greens or a serving of berries. Fiber slows down digestion and can mitigate glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before consuming the almond cake. Staying hydrated can aid in better digestion and glucose regulation.

Opt for a Walk

Take a short walk after eating. Physical activity helps your muscles use glucose more efficiently, reducing spikes.

Monitor Timing

Eat the cake as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach. This will help slow down the glucose release.

Consider Cinnamon

Sprinkle a little cinnamon on the cake; it may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce glucose levels.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite and eating slowly, which can help with digestion and glucose management.

Check Ingredients

If possible, choose or make an almond cake that uses whole wheat flour or almond flour, and natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit, to reduce sugar content.
