How to consume avocados, beets, black olives, carrots, cooked lentils, extra virgin olive oil, lettuce, mushrooms, quinoa, sauerkraut (low sodium, canned), sweet potato (without skin, cooked, boiled) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion sizes of the foods that tend to cause a glucose spike. Eating smaller amounts can help manage and minimize spikes.

Balanced Meals

Combine these foods with a source of lean protein such as chicken, turkey, or tofu, to help slow down digestion and prevent a quick rise in glucose levels.

Fiber Intake

Increase the intake of high-fiber foods like leafy greens, broccoli, or chia seeds alongside your meals. Fiber slows down the absorption of sugars, moderating blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats from sources like almonds, walnuts, or flaxseeds into your meals. They can help slow glucose absorption when eaten with carbohydrates.

Timing and Frequency

Spread out your intake of the foods that cause spikes throughout the day instead of consuming them all at once. This can help prevent a significant rise in glucose levels.

Low-Impact Substitutes

Consider replacing some of the high-impact foods with alternatives that have a similar nutrient profile but less impact on glucose levels, such as substituting quinoa with barley.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during meals to aid digestion and help maintain stable glucose levels.

Cooking Methods

Opt for cooking methods that preserve the nutritional benefits of foods without adding unnecessary calories or sugars, such as steaming or roasting instead of boiling.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help your body use up the glucose and reduce its levels in the blood.

Monitoring

Regularly monitor your blood sugar levels to better understand how these foods affect you individually and adjust your diet accordingly.
