How to consume Pain au chocolat without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of the pain au chocolat you consume to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Include Protein

Pair your pain au chocolat with a source of protein, such as a boiled egg or a small serving of Greek yogurt, to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Add Fiber

Incorporate foods high in fiber, like an apple or a serving of berries, to help moderate the rise in blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, shortly after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of nuts, like almonds or walnuts, to your meal to slow down the digestion process.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, savoring each bite, to enhance the digestive process and improve satiety.

Timing

Consider eating the pain au chocolat as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to help mitigate spikes.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how different foods affect you, and adjust your diet accordingly.

Limit Frequency

Reduce the frequency of consuming pain au chocolat and treat it as an occasional indulgence rather than a regular part of your diet.
