How to consume peanuts | sweet or dark chocolate without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Combine peanuts or chocolate with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as Greek yogurt, cheese, or avocado, to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Portion Control

Serve smaller portions of peanuts or chocolate to limit the amount of sugar and carbs consumed in one sitting.

Choose Dark Chocolate Wisely

Opt for dark chocolate with a higher percentage of cocoa, ideally above 70%, as it typically contains less sugar than milk chocolate.

Add Fiber

Include a fiber-rich food like berries or a small serving of oatmeal to your snack. The fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after your snack to help your body process the sugar more efficiently.

Time Your Consumption

Eat peanuts or chocolate as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to help stabilize your blood sugar.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body use up the glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Pay attention to how you feel when you eat and chew slowly. This practice can help you recognize when you’re full and avoid overeating.

Opt for Alternatives

Consider swapping peanuts or chocolate with a nut mix that includes almonds or walnuts, or snack on a moderate portion of fruits like apples or pears.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Keep track of your carbohydrate intake throughout the day to ensure you are not consuming excessive amounts that could lead to a spike.
