Want a healthy snack? Nutritionist shares a protein-fibre combination that supports blood sugar balance and gut health
Even snacks can be healthy when they are balanced and rich in nutrients. Deepsikha shares a combination that can help regulate blood sugar and support the gut.
Published on: Apr 15, 2026 11:18 AM IST By Eshana Saha Share via Copy link When it comes to snacking, most people instinctively reach for ultra-processed options like chips, biscuits, instant noodles, sugary cereals, or packaged desserts – quick fixes that may satisfy cravings but often fall short on nutrition. However, healthy snacking is very much a thing, and simple combinations can make a big difference. For instance, pairing berries with Greek yoghurt creates a wholesome snack that not only keeps you fuller for longer but also delivers a range of benefits for your overall health.

(Unsplash) Also Read | Nutritionist shares 3 Korean secrets to staying lean, fit and healthy: Check out fitness and diet habits Deepsikha Jain, a nutritionist with a Master’s degree in Global Public Health Nutrition from the UK and a certified national diabetes educator, has shared three compelling reasons to start pairing berries with Greek yoghurt. In an Instagram video posted on April 14, she breaks down what happens in your body when you incorporate this combination as a healthy, everyday snack. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Deepsikha Jain (@fries.to.fit)Blood sugar management
According to Deepsikha, both berries and Greek yoghurt have a low glycaemic index, meaning they are digested and absorbed slowly into the bloodstream, preventing sudden spikes in blood sugar levels. In fact, this combination is particularly effective for blood sugar control, as the high protein content in Greek yoghurt further helps stabilise glucose levels. She explains, “First, blood sugar management. Both the combinations have low glycemic load which means it is not going to give you a sugar spike. Also being rich in protein, this can actually stabilize your blood sugar.”Gut microbiome support
Combining berries with Greek yoghurt works synergistically to support your gut microbiome. Deepsikha highlights that berries are rich in polyphenols, which act as fuel for beneficial gut bacteria, while Greek yoghurt serves as a natural probiotic, delivering live cultures that help enhance microbial diversity and overall gut health. The nutritionist notes, “Second, obviously the combination is great for your gut bugs. This can be a treat for your gut health because berries have polyphenols and Greek yogurt is a source of probiotics, two of which can actually improve your gut health.”Nutritious snack
Lastly, Deepsikha recommends pairing berries with Greek yoghurt as a wholesome, nutrient-dense snack alternative. Together, they offer a well-balanced mix of protein and fibre – two essential nutrients that support satiety, digestive health, and overall wellbeing. She highlights, “And third, it's a great snack alternative and being rich in protein and fibre as well.” Note to readers: This article is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice.
