Protein Biscuits (Threptin) (1 Serving)

Check the biscuit label for total carbohydrates, added sugars, sugar alcohols, and serving size; protein biscuits can still contain ingredients that cause a rapid glucose rise.

Reduce the portion: try half a biscuit first, and avoid eating it on an empty stomach.

Pair the biscuit with a source of fat or fiber, such as a small handful of almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, or avocado, to slow absorption.

Eat the biscuit after a balanced meal containing non-starchy vegetables and protein rather than as a standalone snack.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if this is safe and appropriate for you, to help lower the post-meal rise.

Compare your glucose response to different brands or homemade versions, choosing options with less added sugar and more fiber; discuss recurrent large spikes with your clinician or diabetes educator.
