How to consume cereal with milk without glucose spikes

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like a boiled egg or a handful of almonds alongside your cereal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds to your cereal to incorporate healthy fats, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose High-Fiber Cereals

Opt for cereals that are high in fiber and low in sugar. Look for options containing whole grains like oats, barley, or bran.

Incorporate Berries

Top your cereal with fresh or frozen berries like strawberries or blueberries. These fruits add fiber and natural sweetness without causing a large spike.

Use Greek Yogurt Instead of Milk

Substitute milk with unsweetened Greek yogurt to increase the protein content and decrease the impact on blood sugar.

Try a Non-Dairy Milk Alternative

If using milk, choose unsweetened almond milk or another low-sugar plant-based milk alternative to reduce sugar intake.

Portion Control

Be mindful of portion sizes to prevent overconsumption of carbohydrates and sugar.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on your cereal, as it may help improve blood sugar control.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly, which can help your body process the meal more effectively and manage blood sugar levels better.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before or after your meal to aid digestion and regulate blood sugar levels.
