Smart Snacking for Stable Blood Sugar
Longer daylight hours can mean more snacking—let’s make it count. The goal? Keep insulin low and energy steady. Here’s how:
✅ No “Naked Carbs” – Pair carbs (fruit, grains, sweets) with fat or protein to slow glucose absorption. Think: cheese with veggies or nuts with dark chocolate.
✅ Prioritize Protein & Healthy Fats – A handful of nuts, avocado, or Greek yogurt will keep you satisfied until your next meal.
✅ Snacks = Bridges, Not Meals – It’s okay to feel hunger. The best ingredient in a meal is an appetite.
My go-to snacks:
- Aloha protein bar
- Chomps jerky and small apple
- Simple protein smoothie with collagen, nuts and fiber powder.
- Electrolytes (LMNT) with seaweed snacks for thyroid support
- Cashew yogurt with berries and vanilla collagen
