Snacks that don’t raise your blood sugar abruptly

🥑 Snacks.

We aren’t usually advocates for reliance on snacking. It plays a part, perhaps at the start of your journey when we are dealing with adrenal fatigue or 📈 unbalanced blood sugar, but over time, once we have worked hard on building a strong foundation we encourage clients to free themselves from the notion of always needing something to eat. ⁠ ⁠ 💦 Most often we are thirsty, bored or habitually eating a snack, or looking for a reward for a hard day via food. ⁠ ⁠ Snacking can also be caused by eating a meal too high in carbs, without enough protein, fiber or healthy fats, this triggers a spike and drop in blood sugar making us crave a snack (usually sugary or salty) to keep us going. 💪 ⁠ ⁠

When we are working on your foundation, we generally avoid a lot of the packaged snacks and encourage clients to reach for real food. ⁠

🫒 2-3 olives⁠
🌰 A handful of nuts/ seeds⁠
🍒 A piece of fruit⁠
🥒 Celery or cucumber sticks⁠ ⁠

Right now, this might seem impossible, but we have guided hundreds of clients to free themselves from the snacking rollercoaster, by helping them to create a strong foundation, that doesn’t need to be fuelled by snacks all day long.
