How to consume Banana Bread, Coffee without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of banana bread you consume. Smaller portions will lead to a smaller glucose response.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a boiled egg, alongside your banana bread and coffee. Proteins help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a small serving of cheese. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Drink with Unsweetened Almond Milk

If you add milk or cream to your coffee, consider using unsweetened almond milk instead to reduce sugar intake.

Choose Whole Grain

If possible, opt for banana bread made with whole grain flour or add flaxseeds to your bread recipe. Whole grains break down more slowly in the body.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body process glucose more effectively.

Light Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your muscles use the glucose more efficiently.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a fiber-rich food, like a small apple or carrot sticks, as a side to your banana bread to slow carbohydrate absorption.

Monitor Coffee Additives

Be mindful of any sweeteners or flavored syrups added to your coffee. Opt for natural sweeteners like stevia if needed.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite. This can aid in digestion and help you feel full, potentially reducing the quantity you consume.
