How to consume Asian Chicken Salad without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the Asian Chicken Salad to manage the amount of carbohydrates consumed in one sitting.

Increase Fiber

Add more high-fiber vegetables like spinach, kale, or bell peppers to your salad. These can help slow down digestion and reduce the spike in glucose levels.

Protein Balance

Ensure your salad has enough protein by including grilled chicken or adding a hard-boiled egg. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado or a small handful of nuts (like almonds or walnuts) in your salad to help moderate glucose absorption.

Dressings

Opt for vinaigrettes with vinegar or lemon juice instead of sweet dressings. These can enhance flavor without adding unnecessary sugars.

Whole Grains

If your salad includes grains, choose whole grains like quinoa or barley over refined grains to help with a slower release of glucose.

Timing of Meals

Consider consuming your salad alongside or after a portion of non-starchy vegetables or a small serving of nuts. This can help decrease the overall glycemic impact.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal, as staying hydrated can assist in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew and enjoy your meal. Eating slowly can aid digestion and allow your body more time to process the carbohydrates.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your muscles use the glucose more efficiently.
