How to consume Classic Salted Popcorn, Pepsi without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Incorporate a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a piece of cheese, to help slow down glucose absorption.
Add Healthy Fats
Include some healthy fats with your meal, like avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil, which can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
If you're having popcorn, consider a small portion of whole grain crackers or bread to balance the meal with more complex carbohydrates.
Consume Fiber-Rich Foods
Add fiber-rich veggies, such as a small side salad with leafy greens or steamed broccoli, to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water instead of sugary drinks like Pepsi to avoid additional spikes in blood sugar.
Include a Small Portion of Legumes
Consider adding a small serving of chickpeas or lentils to your meal, as they are known to aid in blood sugar control.
Practice Portion Control
Reduce your portion size of popcorn and Pepsi to minimize the overall sugar intake and its effect on your glucose levels.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after eating to help lower your blood sugar levels.
Monitor Timing
Eat your popcorn and Pepsi as part of a larger meal rather than alone, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Consider Cinnamon
Adding a sprinkle of cinnamon to your popcorn can help improve insulin sensitivity and assist in regulating blood sugar levels.
