How to consume Fresh Pasta (Cooked) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start with smaller portions of pasta to limit the carbohydrate intake in one sitting.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate sources of healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado, or nuts, which can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Protein
Add lean protein like chicken, turkey, or tofu to your pasta dish to moderate the rise in blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
Whenever possible, choose whole grain or whole wheat pasta varieties, which digest more slowly.
Mix with Low-Starch Vegetables
Include vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers. These add volume and nutrients without a significant impact on blood sugar.
Pair with Vinegar
A splash of vinegar or lemon juice can have a beneficial effect on blood sugar management.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and moderate blood sugar fluctuations.
Practice Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and savor each bite, which can help with better digestion and awareness of fullness cues.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after eating to help your body use the sugar more effectively.
Cook Al Dente
Prepare pasta al dente (firm to the bite) as it is digested more slowly than overcooked, soft pasta.
