How to consume Breakfast Pastry without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein such as eggs, Greek yogurt, or a small serving of nuts to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich foods like berries or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top of your pastry to slow down the absorption of sugar.

Hydrate

Drink a glass of water before or during your meal to help regulate your blood sugar response.

Opt for Whole Grains

Choose breakfast pastries made with whole grain flour instead of refined flour to support a more gradual increase in blood sugar.

Control Portions

Limit your serving size to reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of avocado or a tablespoon of nut butter to provide healthy fats that can help slow down sugar absorption.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your muscles use some of the glucose from your meal.

Monitor Timing

Consider eating your pastry after a more balanced breakfast, allowing proteins and fibers to create a foundational buffer for the sugar.

Mindful Eating

Take your time to enjoy your pastry, chewing slowly and savoring each bite, which can help with digestion and blood sugar regulation.

Experiment with Alternatives

Try substituting your usual pastry with a baked oatmeal or a fruit-based option that has no added sugars while maintaining a similar texture and flavor.
