Chocolate Croissant (1 Croissant)

Eat a smaller portion of the chocolate croissant, or split it and save the rest for later.

Have it after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach.

Pair it with protein and fat, such as plain Greek yogurt, eggs, or a small handful of almonds or walnuts.

Add fiber-rich foods alongside it, such as berries, an apple, or non-starchy vegetables.

Avoid sweet drinks, juice, or extra sugary coffee beverages with the croissant; choose water, unsweetened tea, or black coffee instead.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating to help reduce the rise in blood sugar.
