How to consume easy marianara sauce, ground veal, whole wheat spaghetti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of whole wheat spaghetti and increase the proportion of ground veal and vegetables in your meal. This can help balance the carbohydrate load.

Add Fiber

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, zucchini, or bell peppers into the sauce or as a side dish to add fiber and slow down digestion.

Protein Addition

Increase the amount of ground veal or add other lean protein sources such as chicken or turkey to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like olive oil or avocado to the meal. Healthy fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Add a splash of vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice to the marinara sauce or as a dressing over vegetables. These acidic ingredients can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Timing

Consider timing your meal to coincide with physical activity, such as a walk after eating, to help manage blood sugar levels.

Slow Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to register fullness, which can help in controlling portion sizes and digestion.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Cooking Methods

Cook the whole wheat spaghetti al dente, as overcooking pasta can increase the rate at which it impacts blood sugar levels.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar response to this meal and adjust ingredients or portions as necessary for better management.
