How to consume Granola without glucose spikes

Choose Granola Wisely

Opt for granola that is lower in sugar and higher in fiber. Look for varieties that use whole grains like oats and are sweetened with natural sweeteners.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion size when consuming granola. A smaller serving can help minimize glucose spikes.

Combine with Protein

Pair granola with a protein source such as Greek yogurt or cottage cheese. Protein can help slow digestion and reduce the impact on your glucose levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Include some healthy fats like nuts or seeds in your granola mix. These fats can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Low-Sugar Fruits

Mix in berries or other fruits that are lower in sugar to add sweetness without significantly affecting glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after your meal. Staying hydrated can help with the metabolism of carbohydrates.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk after consuming granola. This can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Timing

Eat granola during the day when your body is more active, rather than late at night, to help manage glucose levels more effectively.

Read Labels

Check the ingredient list on granola packaging for added sugars and try to choose options with minimal or no added sugars.

Experiment with Alternatives

Try making your own granola at home with ingredients like oats, nuts, seeds, and spices, allowing you to control the sugar content.
