How to consume Banana, Coffee With Milk without glucose spikes

Balance with Protein and Healthy Fats

Pair your banana and coffee with milk with a serving of protein or healthy fats. Consider adding a handful of nuts, a spoonful of nut butter, or a small portion of Greek yogurt to your meal. These additions can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Choose Alternative Milk Options

Substitute regular milk in your coffee with almond milk or another unsweetened plant-based milk that is lower in carbohydrates.

Eat Bananas When Slightly Under-ripe

Consuming bananas that are slightly green can be beneficial, as they contain more resistant starch and less sugar compared to fully ripe bananas.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Add a source of fiber like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your coffee by blending them into a smoothie or sprinkle them over your banana. Fiber helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Moderate Portion Sizes

Consider eating half a banana instead of a whole one to reduce the overall sugar load from your meal.

Include a Small Portion of Berries

Supplement your banana with a few berries like strawberries or blueberries. They are lower in sugars and can provide additional nutrients.

Drink Coffee Black

If you can, drink your coffee black to eliminate the sugars found in milk. If needed, a splash of unsweetened almond or coconut milk can be a lower-carb option.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on your banana or into your coffee. Cinnamon is known to help with blood sugar regulation and can enhance the flavor without adding sugar.
