How to consume Vegetarian Stew without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of the stew to help manage blood sugar levels. Smaller portions can lead to a smaller glucose response.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your meal. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate sources of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. This can help slow digestion and reduce glucose spikes.

Add Protein

Include a side of protein-rich foods like tofu, tempeh, or a boiled egg. Protein can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Low-Carb Vegetables

Incorporate more non-starchy vegetables into the stew, such as zucchini, spinach, or bell peppers, which can help manage blood glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar.

Chew Thoroughly

Eating slowly and chewing your food thoroughly can improve digestion and help prevent rapid increases in blood sugar.

Add Vinegar

Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your meal. Acetic acid in vinegar can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce spikes.

Monitor Timing

Try consuming the stew earlier in the day when your body is typically better able to handle carbohydrates.

Regular Exercise

Incorporate light physical activity, like a walk, after your meal. Exercise can help enhance insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.
