How to consume Chai, Date without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Incorporate a source of protein or healthy fats with your chai and dates to slow down the absorption of sugar. Consider adding a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts.

Choose Whole Grain Alternatives

If you're having your chai with a snack, opt for whole grain options such as whole grain bread or oats that have a lower impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-rich foods in your meal or snack to help moderate the spike. You could add chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a side of vegetables like carrots or cucumbers.

Control Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the number of dates you consume. Dates are naturally high in sugar, so limiting the quantity can help manage your blood sugar levels.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming chai and dates to help utilize the glucose more effectively.

Include a Source of Acidic Food

Acids can slow the digestion of carbohydrates. Consider having a small amount of vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice in your water.

Drink Unsweetened Chai

Reduce the amount of added sugar in your chai or choose unsweetened milk alternatives to lower the overall sugar intake.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help manage blood glucose levels and improve your body's ability to process sugar.
