Almonds (1 Almond), Oil Roasted Cashew Nuts (100 G) and Raisins (100 G)

Remove the raisins from this snack, since they are the most concentrated source of rapidly absorbed carbohydrate in the mix.

Keep the nuts portion-controlled: try about 20–23 almonds or 15–18 cashews rather than eating from the bag.

Choose plain raw or dry-roasted almonds and cashews without sweet coatings or added sugar; oil roasting itself is not usually the main cause of the rise.

Pair the nuts with a protein-rich option such as plain unsweetened Greek yogurt or a boiled egg to slow absorption and improve fullness.

If you want fruit, replace raisins with a small serving of berries, such as strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after the snack and compare your readings with and without the raisins to identify your personal trigger.
