How to consume coffee | croissant without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein or healthy fats with your meal, such as a handful of almonds or a serving of Greek yogurt, to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds into your meal. You can sprinkle them on the croissant or add them to your coffee.

Opt for Whole Grain Alternatives

If possible, choose a whole grain or multigrain version of the croissant, which can have a less pronounced effect on blood sugar levels.

Limit Portion Size

Reduce the serving size of the croissant or share it with someone to help manage your blood sugar response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a full glass of water before or after your meal to help with digestion and absorption.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Take a short walk or do some light stretching post-meal to help your muscles use up some of the sugar from the meal.

Include a Salad or Vegetables

Pair your meal with a small salad or a serving of non-starchy vegetables like cucumbers or bell peppers to add volume and nutrients to your meal.

Choose Unsweetened Coffee

Opt for black coffee or use a small amount of milk or a milk alternative without added sugars.

Monitor Timing

Try to consume your coffee and croissant as part of a larger, balanced breakfast or snack rather than on an empty stomach to help buffer the glucose spike.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food, which can help you feel more satisfied and may prevent overconsumption.
