How to consume Peanut Butter Sandwich without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread instead of white bread. Whole grains contain more fiber, which can help slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Add Protein

Include a protein source such as a small portion of chicken, turkey, or an egg on your sandwich. Protein can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of chia seeds. These can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add vegetables such as spinach, cucumber, or bell peppers to your sandwich. The fiber content can help reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Use Natural Peanut Butter

Choose natural or unsweetened peanut butter, which contains fewer added sugars and is higher in healthy fats.

Portion Control

Pay attention to portion sizes. Limit the amount of peanut butter and bread to avoid excessive carbohydrate intake.

Pair with a Low Sugar Beverage

Drink water, herbal tea, or another low-sugar beverage with your meal instead of sugary drinks.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat slowly and be mindful of your meal, which can help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Physical Activity

Consider a short walk or light physical activity after eating. This can help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of how you feel after eating different versions of your sandwich, and adjust your ingredients based on what works best for you.
