Walnuts (1 Nut), Almonds (1 Almond) and Raisins (100 G)

Cut the raisin portion first: try 1 tablespoon or less, while keeping almonds and walnuts as the larger share of the snack.

Measure the nuts rather than grazing: start with about 1 small handful total of almonds and walnuts, and avoid adding sweetened or honey-roasted varieties.

Replace some or all raisins with fresh berries, such as raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries, for less concentrated sugar.

Eat the snack after or alongside a balanced meal containing protein and non-starchy vegetables instead of having raisins on an empty stomach.

Pair a small raisin portion with plain unsweetened Greek yogurt or cottage cheese to slow digestion and improve fullness.

Check your response to separate portions of raisins, almonds, and walnuts on different days; raisins are the most likely contributor to a rapid rise.
