How to consume baked or broiled salmon, cooked vegetables without glucose spikes

Add Fiber-Rich Sides

Incorporate a serving of quinoa or barley as a side dish. These whole grains help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Leafy Greens

Add a salad with spinach or kale as a starter. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and can help stabilize your glucose levels.

Use Healthy Fats

Drizzle your salmon with a small amount of extra virgin olive oil or sprinkle a few chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts to add healthy fats that moderate glucose spikes.

Incorporate Legumes

Add a small serving of lentils or chickpeas to your meal. They are high in protein and fiber, which can help maintain stable glucose levels.

Add Citrus or Berries

Include a small portion of berries or a few slices of citrus fruits like oranges or grapefruits. Their natural sugars are balanced with fiber, helping to prevent a spike.

Hydrate with Water or Herbal Tea

Drink water or herbal tea with your meal to help digestion and prevent any potential spikes from dehydration.

Mind Portion Sizes

Keep an eye on your portion sizes, especially of the cooked vegetables, to avoid overeating, which can lead to glucose spikes.

Chew Slowly

Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body process the meal more steadily.

Balance Your Meal Timing

Spread out your meals and snacks evenly throughout the day to maintain stable blood glucose levels.

Exercise After Meals

Consider taking a short walk after eating. Physical activity can help your body use up some of the glucose from your meal effectively.
