⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as substitutes are low in sugars and high in fiber or fats.
• 30–60 min: Stable blood sugar due to low glycemic index of the substitutes.
• 2–3 hr: Continued blood sugar stability, no significant spikes or drops expected with recommended substitutes.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Opt for sugar-free or low-sugar jam varieties, and pair with a source of protein or healthy fats to slow glucose absorption.
