How to consume baked or broiled fish without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include leafy greens, broccoli, or Brussels sprouts with your meal to slow down glucose absorption.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of avocado or a drizzle of olive oil to your dish to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

If you’re adding a side, opt for quinoa or barley instead of white rice or pasta to maintain more stable glucose levels.

Add a Citrus Twist

Squeeze some lemon or lime juice over your fish, as the acidity can help lower blood sugar spikes.

Include Protein-Rich Sides

Consider adding a side of legumes like lentils or chickpeas, which can help reduce the glucose response.

Watch Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the amount of fish consumed, as large portions can increase the likelihood of a glucose spike.

Stay Active After Eating

Take a short walk after your meal to aid digestion and help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout the meal to help your body process glucose more efficiently.

Eat Slowly

Take your time while eating to allow your body to signal fullness and better manage glucose levels.
