How to consume Sangria without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume sangria alongside a meal that includes lean proteins like grilled chicken or fish, or healthy fats such as avocado or nuts. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Add fiber-rich foods to your meal, such as lentils, beans, or whole grains like quinoa or barley. Fiber can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add a Salad

Have a salad with plenty of leafy greens and non-starchy vegetables like cucumbers, bell peppers, and tomatoes. These can help mitigate the rise in glucose.

Choose a Smaller Portion

Limit your portion of sangria to a small glass to reduce the overall sugar intake.

Drink Water Before and After

Staying hydrated can help your body manage sugar spikes, so drink water before and after consuming sangria.

Opt for a Low-Sugar Version

Prepare or choose sangria made with minimal added sugars or sweeteners. Use fresh fruits for sweetness instead.

Walk After Your Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk after eating. This can help reduce blood sugar spikes by promoting glucose uptake by muscles.

Eat Slowly

Savor your meal and drink slowly. Eating and drinking at a slower pace can help regulate the body's insulin response.

Monitor Your Eating Time

Consuming sangria during a meal as opposed to on an empty stomach can help prevent sudden glucose spikes.

Consider Cinnamon

Add a small sprinkle of cinnamon to fruits or your meal. Cinnamon has properties that may help regulate blood sugar levels.
