Pistachio Nuts (1 Nut), Walnuts (1 Nut), Cashew Nuts (100 G), Almonds (1 Oz (22 Whole Kernels)), Almond Choco Fudge (The Whole Truth) (1 Serving) and Double Cocoa 25G Plant Protein (The Whole Truth) (1 Serving)

Reduce the portion of almond choco fudge first, as added sugar and cocoa-based confectionery are more likely to raise glucose than plain nuts; reserve it for an occasional small bite after a balanced meal.

Keep total nuts to a measured serving (about 20–30 g) rather than combining almonds, cashews, pistachios, and walnuts freely in one snack; choose mostly walnuts and almonds, with a smaller amount of cashews.

Choose an unsweetened plant-protein powder with no added sugar, syrups, maltodextrin, or sweetened mix-ins; mix the 25 g serving with water or unsweetened soy milk rather than a sweetened beverage.

Eat the snack after or alongside a meal containing non-starchy vegetables and a protein source, rather than by itself when hungry.

Avoid pairing the nuts or protein shake with other carbohydrate-rich foods or drinks, such as fruit juice, sweetened coffee, crackers, or dessert.

Slow the eating pace and take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the snack or meal, if this is safe and appropriate for you.
