How to consume Energy bar without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-rich Foods

Consume the energy bar alongside foods high in fiber, such as an apple, pear, or a few almonds. These can slow down digestion and the absorption of sugars.

Include Protein

Add a source of protein to your snack, such as a hard-boiled egg, Greek yogurt, or a handful of chickpeas. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before or while eating the energy bar. Proper hydration can assist in maintaining normal glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in a short walk or some light exercise after eating the bar. Physical activity can help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Choose Bars Wisely

Opt for energy bars with lower sugar content and higher fiber and protein. Reading ingredient labels can guide you to better choices.

Smaller Portions

Consider eating half the energy bar instead of a full one and saving the rest for later to avoid a larger spike in blood sugar.

Eat Mindfully

Pay attention to how quickly you eat the bar. Consuming food slowly can aid in digestion and improve your body's response to glucose.

Balance Meals

If you plan to eat an energy bar, balance it with a meal that includes leafy greens or non-starchy vegetables to help mitigate the rise in glucose.
