How to consume half salad and half sandwich without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or whole wheat bread instead of white bread for your sandwich. These options are typically lower in processed carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your salad and sandwich. They can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Protein

Ensure your meal has a good protein source, such as lean chicken, turkey, tofu, or legumes. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Enhance your salad with fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli. These can help moderate the glucose spike.

Limit Sugary Dressings and Sauces

Choose salad dressings and sandwich spreads that are low in added sugars. Consider using olive oil and vinegar as dressing.

Hydrate with Water

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help moderate blood sugar levels.

Practice Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes of each component of your meal to avoid excessive carbohydrate intake.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time to chew your food properly, as this can aid in digestion and help regulate glucose levels.

Engage in Light Exercise

Consider taking a short walk or doing some light physical activity after your meal to help your body regulate glucose levels more effectively.

Monitor Your Body’s Response

Pay attention to how your body responds to different foods and make adjustments to your meal composition as needed.
