How to consume Coffee, Sponge Cake without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein when eating sponge cake, such as a small serving of Greek yogurt or a handful of nuts, to help slow down the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small portion of healthy fats like avocado slices or almond butter to accompany your snack, which can aid in moderating blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole-Grain Alternatives

If possible, choose a sponge cake made with whole-grain flour or incorporate whole grains in your meals throughout the day to balance out the carbohydrates.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Consume a fiber-rich food like an apple or pear alongside your sponge cake to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Mindful Portion Control

Limit the portion size of the sponge cake you consume to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after eating to help your body efficiently process the sugars and maintain stable glucose levels.

Choose Cinnamon as a Topping

Sprinkle cinnamon on your sponge cake or in your coffee, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Spread Out Your Intake

Instead of consuming the entire piece at once, try eating half and saving the rest for later, allowing your body more time to manage glucose intake.

Monitor Coffee Additions

Be cautious with additives in your coffee. Opt for unsweetened almond milk or just a splash of regular milk instead of sugary creamers.

Stay Active

Engage in a light walk or gentle exercise after eating to help your muscles use up some of the glucose from your meal.
