Blood sugar in balance. Less cravings, more energy.
❌ The hidden consequences of blood sugar spikes
A rapid rise in blood sugar can have many negative effects - often without us realizing it:
1️⃣ Cravings & constant snacking
🔸 You eat a meal with fast carbohydrates (e.g. bread, pasta, sweets).
🔸 Your blood sugar rises rapidly.
🔸 Your body produces too much insulin - your blood sugar drops sharply.
🔸 🚨 Result: You get hungry again, even though you've just eaten!
2️⃣ Energy lows & tiredness after eating
🔸 Do you feel limp and tired after a meal?
🔸 Your blood sugar was too high after eating - and then drops rapidly.
🔸 🚨 ConsequenceYour brain gets less glucose, you feel exhausted.
3️⃣ Mood swings & poor sleep
🔸 Fluctuating blood sugar affects your hormone production.
🔸 🚨 ResultIrritability, nervousness & restless sleep.
4️⃣ Unfavorable fat distribution & insulin resistance
🔸 Frequent blood sugar spikes cause the body to store excess energy as fat.
🔸 Fat then accumulates, especially in the abdominal area.
🔸 🚨 In the long term, this can lead to insulin resistance & metabolic problems.
🌿 5 simple strategies for stable blood sugar levels
Blood sugar spikes are avoidable! With these 5 Strategies you keep your energy stable and promote your metabolic health. 👇
1️⃣ Start every meal with fiber
Fiber slows down the absorption of sugar.
🚀 No rapid increase = no rapid decrease = less cravings!
🌱 Here's how it works:
✔️ Eat vegetables or a small salad first.
✔️ Supplement your food with linseed, chia or psyllium husks.
✔️ Swap white flour for wholemeal or pulses.
With BS+ Fibre Plus you can consume up to 20 g of fibre per day and optimize your blood sugar balance:

2️⃣ Eat protein & healthy fats first
👉 This slows down the rise in blood sugar and prevents the energy hole afterwards.
🌱 Here's how it works:
✔️ Eat a few nuts or a spoonful of yogurt before your meal.
✔️ Supplement your lunch with avocado, olive oil or nuts.
✔️ Make sure you always include a source of protein (eggs, fish, pulses).
3️⃣ Exercise after eating - even 10 minutes is enough!
👉 Exercise helps to get glucose directly into the muscles - instead of the fatty tissue.
🌱 Here's how it works:
✔️ Take a short walk after the meal.
✔️ Climb stairs instead of taking the elevator.
✔️ Try a short Qi Gong or Pilates workout after a meal.

4️⃣ Do not eat sweets on an empty stomach
👉 Dessert after a meal is much better than in between!
🌱 Here's how it works:
✔️ Combine sweets with healthy fats and fiber - e.g. dark chocolate with nuts.
✔️ If you eat sweets, eat them immediately after a meal - not in between!
✔️ Use the movement after eating to metabolize the sugar more quickly.
5️⃣ Dietary fiber for a strong immune system
👉 Around 70 % of your immune system is located in the gut - and needs fiber!
🌱 Best high-fiber Food for the immune system:
✔️ Psyllium husks, oat bran, apples
✔️ Onions, leek, garlic (prebiotic fiber!)
✔️ Polyphenol-rich foods such as berries & dark leafy vegetables
💡 Tip: Healthy gut flora plays a key role in your metabolism and energy levels. With BS+ Dietary Fiber Plus you can provide your intestines with up to 20 g of fiber daily and thus support your blood sugar balance in the long term.
