💉 Suggested Bolus

Consider a smaller bolus due to the low carb content and monitor blood sugar post-consumption to adjust future doses.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Veg)

• Almond flour pancakes – Low in carbs and high in fiber, complementing the ice cream without adding significant carbs.
• Chia seed pudding – Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, helping to maintain a feeling of fullness and stable blood sugar levels.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Non Veg)

• Grilled chicken salad – Provides a high-protein, low-carb balance to the meal, supporting overall glycemic control.
• Smoked salmon rolls with cream cheese – Offers healthy fats and protein, which help to slow digestion and reduce blood sugar spikes.

🥄 Smart Substitutes

• Homemade keto ice cream – Contains no added sugars and can be made with natural, low-carb sweeteners like stevia or erythritol.
• Frozen berries with heavy cream – Offers natural sweetness and antioxidants with minimal impact on blood sugar levels.
• Greek yogurt with vanilla extract – Provides a creamy texture with probiotics and very low carbs when unsweetened.

⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as the ice cream is low in carbs and sugars.
• 30–60 min: Stable blood sugar levels due to low glycemic ingredients.
• 2–3 hr: Continued stable blood glucose, with no significant spikes or drops.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Consume in moderation and pair with a source of protein or healthy fats to further slow glucose absorption.
