How to consume Chicken Salad without glucose spikes

Add More Fiber

Incorporate ingredients like leafy greens, such as spinach or kale, and add beans or lentils to your salad to increase fiber content.

Include Healthy Fats

Add sources of healthy fats like avocado slices, nuts, or seeds (e.g., chia seeds, flaxseeds) to slow down the digestion process.

Choose Whole Grains

If you're including grains in your salad, opt for whole grains like quinoa or barley instead of refined grains.

Incorporate Non-Starchy Vegetables

Bulk up your salad with non-starchy vegetables such as cucumbers, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and broccoli.

Use Vinegar-Based Dressings

Dress your salad with a vinegar-based dressing, like balsamic or apple cider vinegar mixed with olive oil, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Balance with Protein

Ensure you're adding sufficient chicken to include protein that will help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Watch Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion sizes of higher-carb ingredients like fruits or croutons if you include them in your salad.

Hydrate Properly

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat slowly and savor your meal, which can help with portion control and better digestion.

Regular Physical Activity

Incorporate regular physical activity, such as a light walk after meals, to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
