How to consume coffee, sweet or dark chocolate without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit your intake of chocolate to a small serving size to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Choose Dark Chocolate

Opt for dark chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa (70% or above), as it generally contains less sugar compared to milk chocolate.

Pair with Protein

Consume chocolate with a source of protein, like a handful of nuts or a slice of cheese, to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a fiber-rich food, such as an apple, pear, or a small salad, with your chocolate to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water when consuming chocolate or coffee to support overall metabolism and digestion.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after consuming chocolate or coffee to help your body manage glucose levels.

Limit Additives in Coffee

If you add sugar or cream to your coffee, try reducing the amount or choose unsweetened alternatives like almond or oat milk.

Mindful Eating

Slow down and enjoy your chocolate or coffee mindfully, which can help reduce the quantity you consume and improve satisfaction.

Monitor Timing

Avoid consuming chocolate or coffee on an empty stomach. It's better to have them alongside a balanced meal or snack.

Experiment with Alternatives

Try cacao nibs or unsweetened cocoa powder in recipes as a substitute for sweetened chocolate, providing flavor without excess sugar.
