Tea (Tea India) (1 Serving) and Tea (Tea India) (1 Serving)

Drink tea plain, or sweeten it with a non-sugar option such as stevia rather than sugar, honey, syrups, or sweetened creamers.

Check additions carefully: flavored tea powders, chai concentrates, boba, and bottled teas often contain substantial added sugar.

Have tea with a small protein- and fat-containing snack, such as a handful of almonds or walnuts, instead of drinking it alongside pastries or biscuits.

If caffeine seems to worsen your readings, try a smaller serving, choose decaffeinated tea, or switch to unsweetened herbal tea.

Avoid drinking tea on an empty stomach if that is when spikes occur; pair it with plain Greek yogurt or a boiled egg.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after tea, especially when it is consumed with a meal or snack.
