How to consume Airplane food without glucose spikes

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Walk Around

Take a short walk in the aisle if it's safe to do so. Physical activity can help your body process glucose more efficiently.

Eat Fiber-Rich Snacks

If you have some control over your snacks, opt for those high in fiber, like whole-grain crackers or an apple, to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Consume Healthy Fats

Eating foods like nuts or a small serving of cheese can slow down the absorption of sugars.

Use Portion Control

Eat smaller portions of carbohydrate-heavy airplane meals to minimize the impact on blood sugar levels.

Choose Complex Carbohydrates

If possible, select meals containing whole grains or legumes, as they tend to digest more slowly.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep an eye on your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand your body's response.

Plan Ahead

If you're able to bring your own food, consider packing meals or snacks that are low in quick-digesting carbs.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Choose water, tea, or coffee without added sugar instead of soft drinks or fruit juice.

Practice Mindful Eating

Eat slowly, savoring each bite can help you eat less and aid in better digestion.
