How to consume chicken meat and skin (broilers or fryers) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chicken meat and skin to minimize the overall carbohydrate impact on your blood sugar levels.

Lean Cuts

Choose leaner cuts of chicken, such as skinless breast, to decrease fat content, which can influence insulin sensitivity.

Cooking Methods

Opt for healthier cooking methods like grilling, baking, or roasting instead of frying to avoid additional fats and sugars.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Pair your chicken with high-fiber foods like lentils, chickpeas, or quinoa. These can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Non-Starchy Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or cauliflower. They help in moderating blood glucose spikes due to their fiber content.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocados or a small portion of nuts, which can improve insulin sensitivity and manage glucose spikes.

Vinegar-Based Dressings

Use vinegar-based dressings on salads or as a marinade for the chicken. The acetic acid in vinegar can help lower blood glucose levels.

Timing of Meals

Ensure balanced meal timings to avoid large gaps between meals, helping maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and after meals to aid digestion and potentially improve blood sugar control.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood glucose levels before and after meals to understand how different foods affect your body and make adjustments accordingly.
