How to consume english greek yoghurt, homemade granola without glucose spikes

Choose Low-Sugar Greek Yogurt

Opt for plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt rather than flavored varieties which often contain added sugars. This will help in managing post-meal glucose levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like a small handful of nuts or seeds (e.g., almonds, walnuts, chia seeds) to your yogurt and granola mix. Protein can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Fiber

Add fiber-rich fruits such as berries (blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries) to your yogurt. Fiber helps in slowing down the digestion of carbohydrates, aiding in better glucose control.

Choose Whole Grains for Granola

When making homemade granola, use whole grain oats and avoid adding sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. Whole grains digest more slowly than refined grains.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Mix in some healthy fats like avocado slices or a drizzle of nut butter (e.g., almond butter). Healthy fats can help in moderating blood sugar spikes.

Portion Control

Be mindful of your portion sizes. Reduce the amount of granola you add to your yogurt to limit the overall carbohydrate intake.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before or with your meal. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before eating. Exercise can help improve insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake by your muscles.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and savor your meal. Eating slowly can help your body better manage glucose levels.

Monitor Timing

Try consuming this meal as part of a balanced breakfast or snack rather than for dinner, as your body is more efficient at processing carbohydrates earlier in the day.
