How to consume Protein Pudding without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the protein pudding to lower the overall intake of carbohydrates and sugars that may contribute to the glucose spike.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a high-fiber topping such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small serving of berries. Fiber can help slow digestion and reduce the impact on blood glucose levels.

Choose Low-Impact Sweeteners

If the pudding is sweetened, opt for natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit, which have minimal impact on blood sugar compared to traditional sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats, such as a few nuts or a dollop of unsweetened nut butter, to help slow the absorption of sugars.

Pair with Protein

Consume the pudding alongside a small serving of lean protein, like boiled eggs or a slice of turkey, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Hydrate Well

Drink plenty of water before and after consuming the pudding to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process and react to the food, potentially reducing spikes in blood glucose.

Timing of Consumption

Consider eating the pudding as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own, or at a time of day when your body is more insulin-sensitive, such as after a workout.

Check Ingredients

Look for protein puddings with minimal additives and lower sugar content, focusing on those with natural ingredients.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar response and adjust the type and quantity of pudding or accompaniments accordingly for better management.
