How to consume Croissants - Butter, 1.5 croissant, medium without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Incorporate a source of protein such as eggs or Greek yogurt to help moderate the absorption rate of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber

Include a serving of foods high in fiber, like chia seeds or flaxseeds, which can slow down the digestion and absorption of sugars.

Opt for Whole Grain Alternatives

Consider choosing whole grain or multigrain croissants if available, which may have a more gradual impact on blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Pair the croissant with healthy fats like avocado or nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, to slow digestion and sugar absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after consuming croissants to aid in digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Smaller Portion Sizes

Consuming a smaller portion or sharing the croissant can help reduce the total carbohydrate intake.

Increase Physical Activity

Engaging in light physical activity, like a short walk after eating, can help use up glucose and prevent spikes.

Consume with Vinegar

Adding a touch of vinegar, such as in a salad dressing, to your meal can help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar spikes.

Monitor Timing

Eating croissants as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach may help mitigate the spike.

Mindful Eating

Eating slowly and savoring each bite can improve digestion and the body’s ability to manage glucose levels effectively.
