How to consume almonds, sweet or dark chocolate without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein, such as Greek yogurt or a hard-boiled egg, to slow digestion and mitigate glucose spikes.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of avocado or a few olives alongside almonds and chocolate to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Consider pairing with high-fiber options like chia seeds or a small portion of berries, which can aid in slowing the absorption of sugars.

Choose Whole Grains

If you're looking to make it a more substantial snack, opt for a small serving of whole grain crackers to complement the almonds and chocolate.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water or herbal tea with your snack to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Be mindful of portion sizes by limiting almonds and chocolate to a small handful each, preventing excess sugar intake.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite, which can help enhance digestion and reduce the likelihood of a glucose spike.

Pre-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before eating to help improve insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try consuming almonds and chocolate as part of a balanced meal rather than a standalone snack to moderate blood sugar responses.

Experiment with Timing

Some people find that eating these foods earlier in the day rather than late at night can result in a more stable blood sugar response.
