How to consume boiled egg, carrots, coconut wrap, dried apricots (uncooked, sulfured) without glucose spikes

Balance with Protein and Healthy Fats

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or turkey slices, to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels. Incorporating healthy fats, like a small portion of avocado or a handful of nuts, can also slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your meal with a side of non-starchy vegetables, such as leafy greens or broccoli. The additional fiber can help moderate glucose spikes.

Mind Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion sizes of dried apricots, as they can be higher in sugars due to the drying process. Reducing the quantity can help lessen the impact on blood sugar.

Add a Complex Carbohydrate

Consider including a small portion of quinoa or barley, which are complex carbohydrates that can help balance the meal and slow digestion.

Hydration and Timing

Drink plenty of water with your meal and try to eat slowly. This can help with digestion and reduce the likelihood of a spike.

Combine with Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. This can help your body use the glucose more effectively.

Experiment with Preparation Methods

Consider steaming or lightly sautéing the carrots instead of boiling them to preserve more of their nutritional content and fiber.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after meals to understand how different foods affect you personally, and adjust your meal composition accordingly in the future.
