Try to reduce the portion size of the Kanafeh you consume. Eating smaller amounts can help minimize glucose spikes.

Incorporate a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, nuts, or a small piece of chicken or fish. Protein can slow down the absorption of sugar.

Pair the sweet with foods high in fiber like a small apple, a pear, or raw vegetables. Fiber can help slow glucose absorption.

Drink water before eating to help slow digestion and reduce the rise in glucose levels.

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to help your muscles use some of the glucose for energy.

If making your own Kanafeh, consider using ingredients like whole wheat flour or reducing the amount of sugar used in the recipe.

Try consuming sweets after a balanced meal instead of on an empty stomach to help mitigate rapid glucose spikes.

Include healthy fats, such as a small handful of almonds or a few avocado slices, with your meal to slow sugar absorption.
