How to consume Boiled Egg, House Salad without glucose spikes

Include Protein and Healthy Fats

Incorporate additional protein or healthy fats to your meal. You could add a serving of grilled chicken or a handful of nuts, like almonds or walnuts, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Enhance your house salad with more fiber-rich vegetables such as spinach, kale, or broccoli. Fiber helps slow down the digestion process, leading to a more gradual rise in blood glucose levels.

Incorporate Whole Grains

If your salad includes any grains, ensure they are whole grains. Options such as quinoa or barley can be a good addition, offering complex carbohydrates that are broken down more slowly.

Opt for Vinegar-Based Dressings

Use a vinegar-based dressing instead of creamier options. Vinegar has been shown to help moderate blood sugar levels after meals.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating Practices

Eat your meal slowly and focus on chewing thoroughly. This practice can aid in digestion and help prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Include a Low-Sugar Fruit

Add a small serving of fruit with lower sugar content like berries or apple slices to your salad. They add natural sweetness without causing a significant spike in glucose.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, post-meal. This can help your muscles use some of the glucose from your bloodstream, reducing spikes.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Keep an eye on the portion sizes of each component in your meal. Consuming smaller amounts can help manage glucose levels better.

Pre-Meal Snack

Consider having a small snack that is high in fiber or protein before your main meal to help moderate the rise in blood sugar. A small piece of cheese or a few nuts can be effective.
