How to consume Taco without glucose spikes
Choose Whole Grain Tortillas
Opt for whole grain or corn tortillas instead of refined flour tortillas to slow down digestion.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds which can help slow carbohydrate absorption.
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, fish, or beans to your tacos to reduce the rate of digestion and absorption.
Include Fiber-rich Vegetables
Fill your tacos with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, and tomatoes to add fiber, which can help moderate glucose spikes.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the portion size of your tacos to avoid consuming too many carbohydrates at once.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water or unsweetened beverages with your meal to aid digestion without adding extra sugar.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew and savor each bite, which can help with blood sugar management by allowing your body to process the food more effectively.
Pair with a Salad
Serve your tacos with a side salad that includes leafy greens and a light vinaigrette to add bulk and fiber to your meal.
Monitor Sauce and Toppings
Use salsa or hot sauce sparingly and avoid high-sugar toppings like certain sauces and dressings, opting for fresh ingredients instead.
Consider Vinegar
Adding a small amount of vinegar-based dressing or pickled vegetables can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
