How to consume mixed salad greens, roasted broiled or baked chicken without glucose spikes
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds (e.g., almonds or chia seeds) to your salad. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.
Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add more fiber-rich vegetables to your salad, such as cucumbers, bell peppers, or broccoli. The additional fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Opt for Vinegar-Based Dressings
Choose a dressing made with vinegar, such as balsamic or apple cider vinegar, as it may help reduce glucose spikes.
Add Legumes
Include a small serving of legumes like chickpeas or lentils in your salad to increase fiber content and promote steadier blood sugar levels.
Pair with Whole Grains
If you're having a side with your meal, opt for whole grains like quinoa or barley instead of refined grains.
Eat Protein with Every Meal
Ensure that your meal is well-balanced with protein, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels. The chicken in your salad provides this, so ensure it’s included in an adequate portion.
Slow Down and Chew Thoroughly
Eating slowly and chewing your food thoroughly can aid digestion and help prevent quick spikes in blood sugar.
Monitor Portion Sizes
Be mindful of portion sizes for all components of your meal to avoid consuming too many carbohydrates at once.
Hydrate Before Meals
Drink a glass of water before eating to ensure you’re hydrated, which can aid in digestion and absorption.
Regular Physical Activity
Engage in regular physical activity, such as a light walk after meals, to help manage blood sugar levels effectively.
