How to consume Lasagna without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the lasagna you consume. Smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Add a Salad

Pair your lasagna with a salad made of leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The fiber in the vegetables can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Whole Grains

If you are preparing lasagna at home, consider using whole grain pasta sheets. They are digested more slowly than refined pasta.

Include Protein

Add a protein source like grilled chicken or turkey to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing down carbohydrate absorption.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or a drizzle of olive oil on your salad. These can help reduce the rate of carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated aids in digestion and can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Slow Eating

Take your time to eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This can aid digestion and give your body time to process the carbohydrates gradually.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity like a walk after eating. This can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how different foods and portion sizes affect your body.

Mindful Substitutions

When preparing lasagna, consider substituting some of the pasta layers with thin slices of zucchini or eggplant to reduce the overall carbohydrate content.
