How to consume coffee with milk and sugar, pastry filled with potatoes and peas (fried) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the quantity of the pastry and consider having just half or a smaller portion to minimize the impact of carbohydrates and fats.

Coffee Modifications

Switch to unsweetened almond milk or another low-carb milk alternative in your coffee. Use a sugar substitute like stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit sweetener instead of regular sugar.

Fiber Addition

Add a high-fiber fruit or vegetable to your meal, such as berries or a small salad, to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Protein Inclusion

Incorporate a source of protein like a boiled egg or a few nuts (such as almonds or walnuts) to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include a small portion of healthy fats like avocado or a tablespoon of chia seeds with your meal to further slow down sugar absorption.

Mindful Eating

Consume your meal slowly and savor each bite. This can enhance digestion and reduce the likelihood of a sharp spike in blood sugar.

Timing Adjustments

Have this meal as part of a larger, balanced meal rather than on its own, so the impact of carbohydrates is moderated by other foods.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body use the glucose more effectively and reduce spikes.

Alternative Snacks

Consider replacing the pastry with a whole-grain alternative that contains lentils or beans, providing sustained energy without a significant spike.

Hydration

Ensure you are well-hydrated throughout the day, as proper hydration supports metabolic processes and can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
