How to consume Arabic food without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Keep an eye on portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Balanced Meals

Include a mix of protein, fiber, and healthy fats with your meals, which can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole-grain options like brown rice or whole-grain pita bread instead of white rice or refined flour-based bread.

Incorporate Legumes

Include lentils, chickpeas, or beans in your meals. They are a staple in Arabic cuisine and help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Increase the amount of non-starchy vegetables in your dishes. Ingredients like cucumbers, tomatoes, and spinach can add nutrients and help control blood sugar.

Mindful Snacking

Choose snacks like nuts, seeds, or yogurt, which can be more stable for blood sugar compared to sweet or fried snacks.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to help with digestion and moderation of blood sugar levels.

Limit Sugary Drinks

Avoid or minimize drinks with added sugars. Instead, consider having water, herbal teas, or unsweetened beverages.

Savor Slowly

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food without overwhelming your system.

Regular Exercise

Engage in regular physical activity, which can help your body use insulin more efficiently and manage blood sugar levels.
