How to consume croissant with egg and cheese, english flat white without glucose spikes

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include a side of spinach or avocado with your meal. These are low in carbohydrates and can help slow down digestion, reducing glucose spikes.

Choose Whole Grain Options

If possible, opt for a whole grain croissant or a whole wheat English muffin as an alternative to the regular croissant. Whole grains can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Protein-Rich Foods

Add a small portion of smoked salmon or turkey to your meal. Proteins can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Low-Fat Cheese

Use a reduced-fat cheese option in your croissant to decrease the meal's fat content, which can contribute to slower digestion and a more stable blood glucose response.

Limit Portion Size

Consider having a half serving of the croissant or sharing it with someone. Reducing portion size can directly decrease the carbohydrate intake and thus the glucose spike.

Drink Unsweetened Beverages

Choose an unsweetened almond milk latte instead of the English flat white to decrease sugar content while still enjoying a creamy coffee.

Stay Active Post-Meal

Take a short walk after your meal. Physical activity can help your body use glucose more effectively and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a few almonds or walnuts on the side. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual change in blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat and enjoy your meal. Eating slowly can regulate how your body processes the carbohydrates, preventing sudden spikes.

Hydrate Well

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
