How to consume Boiled Egg, Toasted Sour Dough Bread without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread instead of sourdough to help reduce the spike. These options tend to cause a slower increase in glucose levels.

Add Protein or Healthy Fat

Include a source of healthy fat or additional protein, such as avocado slices, a handful of nuts, or a small portion of cheese. This can help slow down digestion and the absorption of carbohydrates.

Consume Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate fiber-rich foods alongside your meal, such as a small salad or steamed vegetables like broccoli or spinach. Fiber can help moderate glucose absorption.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the sourdough bread. A smaller portion can lead to a smaller glucose response.

Balance with Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add non-starchy vegetables to your meal, like tomatoes or cucumbers. This can aid in balancing the meal and reducing the impact on blood glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Adequate hydration can help manage blood glucose levels more effectively.

Monitor Timing

Consider the timing of your meal. Eating at regular intervals and avoiding large gaps between meals can help maintain steady glucose levels.

Incorporate Physical Activity

A short walk or light exercise after your meal can aid in glucose regulation by helping your body use glucose more efficiently.

Reduce Bread Thickness

If you prefer sourdough, try toasting a thinner slice to reduce the carbohydrate content.

Experiment with Toppings

Try topping your toast with hummus or nut butter instead of butter or jam to increase the protein and fat content, which may help in moderating the glucose spike.
