Diabetic horlicks (1 piece)

Use a smaller measured serving of diabetic Horlicks and prepare it with water or unsweetened soy milk rather than sweetened milk.

Drink it alongside a protein- and fibre-rich option such as plain Greek yogurt, chia seeds, or a small handful of almonds.

Avoid adding sugar, honey, malted powders, biscuits, or other sweet accompaniments.

Have it after or with a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach, especially if you notice a repeatable rise.

Take a gentle 10–15 minute walk after drinking it if this is safe and appropriate for you.

Check your glucose response at consistent times and discuss recurrent spikes with your diabetes clinician; the product may not suit your personal carbohydrate tolerance.
