How to consume collagen peptides without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Combine collagen peptides with foods high in fiber, such as oatmeal, chia seeds, or berries. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of glucose.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds into your meal. Fats can slow digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Include Lean Proteins

Mix collagen peptides with other protein sources, such as Greek yogurt or a small serving of lean poultry, to help stabilize glucose levels.

Portion Control

Keep an eye on portion sizes for both collagen peptides and accompanying foods to avoid excessive carbohydrate intake.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If consuming grains with your collagen peptides, choose whole grain options like quinoa or barley, which have a slower effect on blood sugar.

Avoid Sugary Additives

Skip adding sugars or sweeteners to your collagen peptides and opt for natural, low-sugar alternatives like cinnamon or vanilla extract.

Eat Non-Starchy Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or bell peppers into your meals for added nutrients without a significant impact on glucose levels.

Spread Out Your Intake

Instead of consuming a large amount of collagen peptides in one sitting, spread it out over the day in smaller portions.

Monitor Timing of Intake

Pay attention to when you consume collagen peptides. Eating them earlier in the day when your body may be more insulin sensitive can be beneficial.
