Homemade - Filter Coffee, 20ml Semi-Skimmed Milk, No Sugar/Sweetener, 200 ml (1 serving(s))

Try decaffeinated or half-caffeinated filter coffee; caffeine can raise glucose in some people even without added sugar.

Drink the coffee with or after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach.

Reduce the semi-skimmed milk amount, or test coffee black to see whether the milk is contributing to the rise.

If you prefer milk, try a small amount of unsweetened almond milk or unsweetened soy milk with no added sugars.

Pair the coffee with a small portion of plain Greek yogurt, nuts, or seeds to blunt the response.

Compare your glucose response on separate days using regular versus decaffeinated coffee and different milk amounts, keeping the rest of the meal and timing similar.
