How to consume milk chocolate candy with fruit and nuts without glucose spikes

Opt for Dark Chocolate

Choose dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa instead of milk chocolate. It has less sugar and more beneficial compounds.

Pair with Protein

Eat a small portion of cheese, Greek yogurt, or a handful of almonds with your chocolate. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or oats into your snack to slow down sugar absorption.

Choose Low-Sugar Fruits

When combining with fruit, opt for berries such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries, which are lower in sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after eating chocolate to help your body process the sugar more efficiently.

Moderate Your Portions

Limit the amount of chocolate you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions result in smaller glucose spikes.

Eat During Meals

Include your chocolate treat as part of a balanced meal rather than as a standalone snack. This can help mitigate blood sugar spikes.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a source of healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of nuts to your snack to slow digestion and sugar absorption.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk after eating chocolate. Exercise helps reduce blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing

Avoid consuming chocolate on an empty stomach. Eating it after a meal can help reduce the spike.

Limit Added Sugars

Ensure that other components of your snack or meal are low in added sugars to avoid compounding the glucose spike.

Use Natural Sweeteners

If you're making your own chocolate treats, use natural sweeteners like stevia or erythritol which have minimal impact on blood sugar.
