How to consume beikon hamborgari without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Buns

Opt for whole grain or whole wheat buns instead of white bread buns. They are slower to digest and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Consider adding a layer of leafy greens such as lettuce or spinach to your burger. You could also include slices of tomato or cucumber to increase fiber content, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Add avocado slices or a small amount of olive oil-based dressing to your burger. Healthy fats can slow down digestion and the absorption of carbohydrates, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Control Portion Size

Reduce the size of your burger to control the overall carbohydrate intake. Opt for a smaller patty or open-face burger (using only one half of the bun) to minimize the impact on blood sugar.

Incorporate Protein

Ensure your burger includes a good source of lean protein, such as a lean beef patty, turkey, or a plant-based alternative like a bean or lentil patty. Protein helps with satiety and moderates the rise in blood sugar.

Pair with a Side Salad

Instead of fries, accompany your burger with a side salad featuring non-starchy vegetables and a light vinaigrette. This adds fiber and essential nutrients while helping to reduce the rate of glucose absorption.

Hydrate with Water

Drink a glass of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help with digestion and prevent overeating, both of which contribute to maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
