How to consume cotton candy without glucose spikes

Eat a Balanced Meal First

Before indulging in cotton candy, have a balanced meal that includes fiber, protein, and healthy fats to slow down sugar absorption.

Opt for a Smaller Portion

Reduce the size of the cotton candy serving to minimize the impact on blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate foods like lentils, quinoa, or vegetables such as broccoli and spinach into your meal to help stabilize blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body manage sugar more effectively.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Go for a short walk or engage in light exercise after consuming cotton candy to aid in blood sugar regulation.

Add Protein Snacks

After having cotton candy, include snacks high in protein like nuts, seeds, or a boiled egg to help balance blood sugar.

Consider Vinegar

Consuming a small amount of vinegar, such as in a salad dressing, before eating cotton candy may help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Limit Other Carbs

Reduce the intake of other carbohydrate-rich foods during the meal when you plan to have cotton candy, focusing instead on non-starchy vegetables.

Monitor Your Portions Consistently

Pay attention to portion sizes not just for cotton candy but for all carbohydrate-heavy foods to better manage your blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating Practices

Eat slowly and savor the cotton candy to feel more satisfied with a smaller amount, potentially reducing the urge to consume more.
