How to consume fruit yogurt (lowfat, 10g protein per 8oz) without glucose spikes

Add Nuts or Seeds

Incorporate a small handful of almonds, walnuts, or chia seeds into your yogurt. These additions not only add healthy fats and proteins but also help to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Include a small serving of fiber-rich foods like berries (such as strawberries or blueberries) or a sprinkle of ground flaxseed. These options can help slow the digestion process and prevent a rapid increase in blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Fruit

Instead of fruit-flavored yogurt, choose plain yogurt and add fresh, whole fruits like strawberries, raspberries, or sliced apples. Whole fruits generally have more fiber and less added sugar than fruit-flavored yogurts.

Choose Greek Yogurt

If possible, switch to Greek yogurt, which is higher in protein and often contains less added sugar than regular fruit yogurt. The extra protein can help moderate glucose spikes.

Control Portion Size

Consider reducing the portion size of yogurt to 4-6oz and balance it with protein or fat from other sources, like a boiled egg or a piece of cheese, to create a more balanced snack or meal.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon onto your yogurt. Cinnamon has been suggested to help improve insulin sensitivity and can be a flavorful addition without adding sugar.

Avoid Sugary Add-ins

Stay away from adding extra sugars or sweetened toppings, and avoid yogurts with high amounts of added sugars, often found in fruit-on-the-bottom varieties.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water with your meal to help with digestion and absorption, which could contribute to a more stable blood sugar response.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating your yogurt. This can help your body utilize the glucose more effectively and reduce spikes.

Mindful Eating

Pay attention to how you eat. Eating slowly and mindfully can help your body better regulate insulin production and improve digestion.
