How to consume yellow cake (without frosting) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of yellow cake you consume in one sitting to reduce the potential for a glucose spike.

Pair with Protein

Eat the cake alongside a protein-rich food, such as a handful of nuts or a boiled egg, to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Include Fiber

Add a source of fiber like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small serving of berries to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Drink Water

Stay hydrated by drinking a glass of water before consuming the cake to aid in digestion and mitigate the spike.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado, or a few almonds to your snack to balance the carbohydrate intake.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat the cake by chewing slowly, which can help with better digestion and reduce the glucose spike.

Precede with a Salad

Start your meal with a small salad that includes leafy greens and a vinegar-based dressing to help control blood sugar levels.

Exercise Post-Consumption

Engage in a light exercise, such as a 10-15 minute walk, shortly after eating the cake to help your body utilize the glucose effectively.

Monitor Timing

Consume the cake as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to maintain steadier blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grain Alternatives

Opt for baked goods made with whole grain flour instead, if possible, to provide additional nutrients and reduce the spike.
