How to consume shortbread cookie without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of shortbread cookies you consume at one time. Smaller portions can help minimize the spike in glucose levels.

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Consume the cookie with foods high in fiber, such as oatmeal or chia seeds, which can slow the absorption of sugar.

Include Healthy Fats

Eat a small amount of healthy fats, like a handful of nuts or a slice of avocado, alongside your cookie to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Protein

Pair the cookie with a protein source, such as Greek yogurt or a boiled egg, to help reduce the overall impact on blood glucose.

Stay Hydrated

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

Physical Activity

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

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor the cookie to help increase satisfaction and prevent overconsumption.

Snack Wisely

If you're craving something sweet, consider options like berries or an apple with a small amount of nut butter, which can offer sweetness with a smaller impact on glucose levels.

Consume Vinegar

Try having a small amount of vinegar, like apple cider vinegar, diluted in water before your meal, as it may help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood glucose levels to better understand how different foods affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.
