How to consume Espresso without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume a small amount of protein such as a handful of nuts or a slice of cheese alongside your espresso to slow digestion and help stabilize blood sugar.
Include Fiber-Rich Foods
Eat a fiber-rich snack like a few slices of apple or pear, which can help moderate your blood sugar response.
Hydrate Well
Drink a glass of water before or after your espresso to help dilute its effects on your blood sugar.
Choose Whole Grains
If you have your espresso with a snack, opt for whole-grain options like whole-wheat crackers or oats.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like a small piece of avocado or a few almonds with your espresso to slow glucose absorption.
Monitor Portion Size
Limit the sugar or sweeteners added to your espresso, opting for a smaller serving if needed.
Try Cinnamon
Sprinkle a little cinnamon into your espresso, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity.
Exercise Moderately
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming espresso to help manage glucose levels.
Drink it Black
Avoid adding sugar or high-glycemic dairy products to your espresso; enjoy it black or with a splash of unsweetened almond milk.
Time Your Intake
Have your espresso around meal times rather than on an empty stomach to minimize blood sugar fluctuations.
