How to consume Greek Yogurt Smoothie without glucose spikes

Choose Unsweetened Greek Yogurt

Opt for plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt to avoid added sugars that can contribute to glucose spikes.

Add Fiber-Rich Ingredients

Incorporate ingredients like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or oats to your smoothie. These are high in fiber and can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Use Low-Sugar Fruits

Select fruits like berries (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) which are lower in natural sugars compared to tropical fruits like bananas or pineapples.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats such as almond butter, avocado, or coconut oil. These can help reduce the rate at which your body absorbs sugar.

Incorporate Leafy Greens

Add a handful of spinach or kale to your smoothie. These greens are low in sugar and high in nutrients, providing a more balanced nutrient profile.

Control Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion size of your smoothie. A smaller serving can help prevent excessive intake of carbohydrates in one sitting.

Use Protein Powder

Consider adding a scoop of protein powder to your smoothie. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by providing a more sustained source of energy.

Substitute with Nut Milk

Instead of high-sugar fruit juices or milk, use unsweetened almond milk or other nut milks to reduce sugar content.

Consider Cinnamon

Add a dash of cinnamon to your smoothie. Cinnamon may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels.

Drink Water

Accompany your smoothie with a glass of water to help dilute sugar concentrations and promote hydration.
