How to consume candy sweets without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume candy sweets along with sources of protein or healthy fats like nuts, cheese, or yogurt. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream.

Portion Control

Limit your intake of candy sweets by enjoying smaller portions. Consider sharing a candy bar or saving half for later.

Choose Dark Chocolate

Opt for dark chocolate with a high cocoa content, which generally contains less sugar than milk chocolate.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Eat fiber-rich foods such as vegetables, whole grains, or legumes alongside your sweets to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after consuming sweets to help your body process the sugar more effectively.

Get Moving

Engage in light physical activity like a brisk walk after eating candy to help your muscles use up extra glucose.

Eat Balanced Meals

Ensure your meals throughout the day are balanced with proteins, healthy fats, and fiber, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing

Avoid eating candy on an empty stomach. Instead, enjoy it as part of a meal or a snack to lessen its impact on your blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by savoring your sweets slowly, which can help you feel satisfied with a smaller amount.

Track Your Responses

Keep a food diary to track how different sweets and meal combinations affect your blood sugar, allowing you to make more informed choices in the future.
