How to consume sweet and sour chicken or turkey without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of sweet and sour chicken or turkey to minimize the amount of carbohydrates consumed.

Add Fiber-Rich Sides

Pair the dish with fiber-rich foods like steamed broccoli, lentils, or a mixed salad to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Incorporate Whole Grains

Substitute white rice with quinoa or barley as a side dish. These options have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add avocado slices or a handful of nuts (like almonds or walnuts) to your meal. Healthy fats can help in moderating blood sugar spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and blood sugar regulation.

Choose a Low-Sugar Version

Opt for a sweet and sour sauce with reduced sugar content. You can make a homemade version using natural sweeteners like stevia.

Incorporate Vinegar

Add a splash of apple cider vinegar to your meal or dressing. It may help improve your body's response to carbohydrates.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat, chew thoroughly, and savor your meal. This can help with better digestion and prevent overeating.

Add Protein

Include a side of lean protein like grilled fish or tofu to the meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels after eating.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how your body reacts and make necessary adjustments.
