How to consume Buttered Air Popped Popcorn, Pepsi without glucose spikes

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and after consuming popcorn and Pepsi to help regulate blood sugar levels and support digestion.

Portion Control

Limit the amount of popcorn and Pepsi you consume in a single sitting. Smaller portions can help prevent a large spike in glucose levels.

Pair with Protein

Incorporate a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a piece of cheese, when consuming popcorn and Pepsi to slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber

Include a small salad or a few slices of cucumber alongside your snack to increase fiber intake, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, opt for whole grain or multigrain popcorn varieties, as they generally have a slower impact on blood sugar.

Reduce Added Butter and Sugar

Minimize the amount of butter on your popcorn and opt for a sugar-free or low-sugar alternative to regular Pepsi to decrease the overall sugar and fat content.

Exercise

Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after eating to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Timing

Try to consume these snacks earlier in the day rather than late at night to give your body more time to process the glucose.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how these foods affect you personally and adjust your intake accordingly.

Consult a Professional

Speak with a healthcare professional or nutritionist for personalized advice and strategies tailored to your specific needs.
