How to consume Baked Beans without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of baked beans to limit the carbohydrate intake, which can help manage blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein such as grilled chicken, fish, or tofu with your meal to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocados, nuts, or seeds to your meal. These can help slow the digestion process and lead to a more gradual rise in blood sugar.

Choose Whole Grains

Pair your meal with whole grains like quinoa or brown rice, which digest slower than white carbohydrates.

Incorporate Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your plate to add fiber and bulk to your meal.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Add Vinegar

Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your meal or dressing your salad with vinegar-based dressings, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Eat Slowly

Practice mindful eating by chewing your food thoroughly and taking your time with meals to aid in better digestion and glucose management.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before eating to enhance insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods affect you personally, and adjust your eating habits accordingly.
