How to consume Milk, Special K Cereal without glucose spikes

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like a boiled egg or a handful of nuts. Protein can help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, reducing glucose spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds to your cereal. These healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Milk Alternatives

Use unsweetened almond milk or soy milk instead of regular cow's milk. These alternatives often have a lower impact on blood sugar.

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of the cereal and milk. Smaller portions can help lessen the immediate impact on blood sugar.

Add Fiber

Top your cereal with berries like strawberries or raspberries. These fruits are fiber-rich and can help moderate blood sugar levels after meals.

Combine with Physical Activity

After eating, engage in light physical activity such as a walk. This can help your body use up glucose more efficiently.

Choose Whole Grains

If you’re open to alternatives, try switching to a cereal made from whole grains or oats, which are absorbed more slowly by the body.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Adequate hydration can help with the digestion process and may aid in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
