How to consume Fruitcake without glucose spikes

Moderate Portion Size

Limit the amount of fruitcake you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help prevent larger spikes in blood sugar.

Pair with Protein

Eat a small serving of fruitcake alongside a protein-rich food, like a handful of nuts or a piece of cheese. This combination can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado or a small amount of olive oil to your meal when you eat fruitcake. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, choose a fruitcake made with whole grain flour, which has a slower impact on blood sugar compared to refined flour.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body process sugar more efficiently.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair your fruitcake with fiber-rich foods like a small serving of legumes or a leafy green salad. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Engage in Physical Activity

After eating fruitcake, consider a light walk or another form of gentle exercise to help your body use up some of the sugar.

Monitor Portion Timing

Instead of eating fruitcake all at once, consider spreading out small portions throughout the day.

Control the Rest of Your Meal

Ensure other foods in your meal have a lower impact on blood sugar. Opt for vegetables like broccoli or carrots to balance out the meal.

Mindful Eating

Pay attention to your eating speed. Slowing down can help you feel full sooner and reduce overall consumption.
