How to consume corn flakes, honey without glucose spikes

Combine with Protein

Pair cornflakes and honey with a protein source like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a boiled egg. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats, such as a handful of almonds, chia seeds, or a tablespoon of flaxseed. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber

Add fruits like berries or apple slices to your meal. They are high in fiber, which can help slow the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Smaller Portions

Reduce the portion size of cornflakes and honey, and increase the portion size of protein, fats, and fiber-rich foods in your meal.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water or herbal tea with your meal to help with digestion and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Choose Whole Grain Alternatives

If possible, switch to whole grain or bran flakes, which have a slower impact on blood sugar compared to refined cereals.

Monitor Timing

Eat smaller, balanced meals and snacks throughout the day rather than large meals, which can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Limit Added Sugars

Use a smaller amount of honey or opt for natural sweeteners like berries to add sweetness without causing a large spike.

Stay Consistent

Maintain a consistent meal schedule and avoid skipping meals, which can cause larger fluctuations in blood sugar levels.
