How to consume coconut cookie, tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the coconut cookie to limit the carbohydrate intake. Smaller portions can help in minimizing glucose spikes.

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your snack with high-fiber foods like a small apple or a handful of almonds. Fiber slows down digestion and the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein, such as a boiled egg or a small serving of Greek yogurt, to your snack. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Low-Sugar Alternatives

Opt for unsweetened tea or use a natural sugar substitute. Reducing sugar in your tea can significantly lower its impact on your glucose levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Enjoy a few slices of avocado alongside your snack. Healthy fats can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Drink Water

Before indulging in your snack, drink a glass of water. Staying hydrated can assist in better glucose management.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk post-snack to help your muscles use up some of the glucose, thereby reducing spikes.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite and eating slowly, which can aid in better digestion and glucose regulation.

Check Timing

Aim to consume your snack as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach, to buffer the impact on blood sugar levels.

Monitor Consistently

Keep a food diary and monitor your blood glucose response to understand how different foods affect you, and adjust your choices accordingly.
