How to consume Beef Meatballs without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Serve the beef meatballs with a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale to slow down sugar absorption.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a small portion of healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts to your meal to help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Opt for Whole Grains
If you’re having a starch with your meal, choose whole grains like quinoa, barley, or bulgur instead of refined grains.
Use a Tomato-Based Sauce
Prepare your meatballs with a tomato-based sauce instead of sugary or creamy sauces to maintain a steady blood sugar level.
Include Legumes
Add lentils or chickpeas to your meal for additional protein and fiber, which will aid in reducing the glucose spike.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to aid digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of portion sizes and avoid overeating to prevent excessive glucose spikes.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time eating to give your body a chance to process food gradually, which can help in managing blood sugar levels.
Add a Side Salad
Start your meal with a salad containing leafy greens, cucumbers, and bell peppers to increase fiber intake.
Include a Small Serving of Dairy
Consider adding a small portion of plain yogurt or cheese to your meal, as the proteins and fats can help balance blood sugar levels.
