Coconut Meat (1 Piece (2 Inches X 2 Inches X 1/2 Inches))

Reduce the coconut meat portion and eat it slowly; measure a smaller serving that keeps your post-meal response stable.

Avoid eating coconut meat by itself, especially after a long fast or alongside sweetened drinks, dried fruit, or refined carbohydrates.

Pair it with a protein-rich food such as plain unsweetened Greek yogurt, eggs, tofu, or cottage cheese to blunt the rise.

Add high-fiber, low-starch foods such as chia seeds, ground flaxseed, avocado, leafy greens, cucumber, or berries.

Choose fresh, unsweetened coconut meat rather than sweetened, dried, or packaged coconut products, which may contain added sugars.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, and use your glucose readings to identify the portion size and meal combination that works best for you.
