How to consume Breakfast Pastry without glucose spikes

Opt for Whole Grains

Choose whole grain or multigrain pastry options if available, as they have more fiber which can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Include Protein

Pair your pastry with a source of protein, such as a boiled egg or a serving of Greek yogurt, to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats into your breakfast by adding a small handful of nuts or a slice of avocado, which can help moderate glucose spikes.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the pastry. Consider having half a pastry and filling the rest of your meal with more balanced options.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include high-fiber foods, like a small apple or pear, alongside your pastry to help balance the sugar intake.

Hydrate Wisely

Drink water or unsweetened tea instead of sugary beverages, which can exacerbate glucose spikes.

Timing Strategy

Eat your pastry after consuming fiber-rich vegetables, if feasible, to slow down digestion and the absorption of sugars.

Choose Less Sweet Pastries

Opt for pastries that are less sweet or contain natural sweeteners, as these may have a milder impact on your blood sugar.

Incorporate a Walk

Take a short walk after eating to aid in sugar metabolism and help lower blood sugar levels naturally.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to better regulate your appetite and prevent overeating, which can lead to larger glucose spikes.
