How to consume coffee with milk and sugar, oil roasted cashew nuts without glucose spikes

Switch to Black Coffee or Unsweetened Tea

Eliminating milk and sugar from your coffee can significantly reduce glucose spikes. If you prefer a hint of sweetness, consider using a natural, low-calorie sweetener like stevia.

Use a Milk Alternative

If you find black coffee too bitter, try adding a small amount of unsweetened almond milk or oat milk, which are typically lower in carbohydrates than regular milk.

Opt for Raw or Dry-Roasted Nuts

Instead of oil-roasted cashew nuts, choose raw or dry-roasted nuts, which often contain fewer added sugars and unhealthy fats.

Pair with a Protein Source

Add a small portion of a high-protein food like a boiled egg, Greek yogurt, or a handful of almonds. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber

Consider adding a fiber supplement or consuming a high-fiber food like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small apple before or alongside your coffee and nuts. Fiber can slow the absorption of sugar.

Eat Smaller Portions

Reduce the quantity of cashew nuts you consume at one time. Smaller portions will result in a smaller glucose response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before consuming your coffee and nuts. Hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Choose Low-Sugar Alternatives

If you must have something sweet with your coffee, opt for a small portion of berries like blueberries or strawberries, which have a lower impact on blood sugar.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as a small amount of avocado or a teaspoon of natural peanut butter. Healthy fats can help slow the absorption of sugar.

Practice Mindful Eating

Take your time to eat slowly and mindfully. Chewing thoroughly and not rushing through your meal can positively affect your digestion and blood sugar levels.
