Mixed Nuts (100 G) and Herbal Tea (1 Mug (8 Fl Oz))

Drink the herbal tea plain; avoid adding honey, sugar, syrups, sweetened creamers, or sweetened plant milks.

Keep mixed nuts to a small measured portion, such as a small handful (about ¼ cup), since larger portions can still raise glucose for some people.

Choose an unsweetened nut mix without dried fruit, chocolate, candy coatings, or sweetened roasted nuts.

Favor nuts such as almonds, walnuts, pistachios, pecans, and Brazil nuts in the mix.

Have the nuts alongside a protein-rich option such as plain Greek yogurt or a boiled egg if you notice a rise when eating them alone.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after eating to help blunt the post-meal rise.
