How to consume Coffee With Milk, Date without glucose spikes

Choose Low Glycemic Load Coffees

Opt for black coffee or espresso without any added sugars or syrups. If you prefer milk, use unsweetened almond or soy milk instead of regular milk to reduce sugar content.

Portion Control with Dates

Consume fewer dates in one sitting. Consider having just one or two dates and pair them with a source of protein, like a small handful of nuts, to slow sugar absorption.

Incorporate Fiber

Add a high-fiber food to your snack. Consider a small serving of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a few slices of an apple to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Pair your coffee and dates with healthy fats, such as a small serving of avocado or a few almonds. This can help moderate the absorption of sugars into your bloodstream.

Increase Protein Intake

Include a protein-rich food, like a hard-boiled egg or Greek yogurt, alongside your coffee and dates to slow down sugar absorption.

Limit Additional Sweeteners

Avoid adding sugar or sweetened flavorings to your coffee. If sweetness is needed, use a natural sweetener like stevia or monk fruit in moderation.

Consider Timing

Enjoy coffee with milk and dates as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to reduce the impact on blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before consuming your coffee and dates, which can help with digestion and the overall metabolic process.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion sizes of both your coffee (especially if adding milk) and dates to keep your sugar intake in check.

Regular Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming foods that may cause spikes to help regulate blood sugar levels.
