How to consume 14" pepperoni pizza | beer without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit your intake by eating fewer slices of pizza and reducing the amount of beer you consume. This helps in minimizing the glucose spike by reducing the overall intake of carbohydrates and sugars.

Choose Whole Grain

If possible, opt for a whole-grain pizza crust to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add a Fiber-Rich Salad

Include a side salad with greens like spinach, kale, or arugula. Adding vegetables such as cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes can increase fiber intake, which helps in controlling blood sugar spikes.

Protein Boost

Accompany your meal with a protein source such as grilled chicken or turkey slices. Protein can help slow the digestion process and temper blood sugar increases.

Opt for Thin Crust

Choose a thin-crust pizza over the regular or thick crust to reduce the amount of carbohydrates consumed per slice.

Hydrate with Water

Drink water instead of or alongside beer to help dilute carbohydrate concentration and maintain better hydration.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocados or a drizzle of olive oil on your salad. This can slow digestion and absorption of glucose, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Limit High-Sugar Add-Ons

Avoid adding high-sugar condiments and sides that could further increase blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a walk after your meal to help your body use up glucose more efficiently.

Spaced Eating

Consider spacing out your consumption by eating smaller portions over a longer period instead of all at once.
