How to consume Custard without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of custard to limit the sugar and carbohydrate intake, helping to minimize the spike in glucose levels.

Protein Pairing

Consume custard alongside a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or Greek yogurt, to slow down sugar absorption.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-rich foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small serving of berries to help moderate the glucose response.

Whole Grains

Pair the custard with a small amount of whole grains like oats or quinoa, which can help balance blood sugar levels.

Timing

Eat custard as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own, which can reduce the impact on blood glucose.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado or a few slices of almonds to your meal to help slow down digestion and sugar absorption.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after consuming custard to help lower blood sugar levels.

Monitor Ingredients

Choose custard with lower sugar content or make it at home using natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support overall metabolic processes and help manage blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite, which can help with portion control and prevent overconsumption.
