How to consume Bread and cheese without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain or Multigrain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread instead of white bread. These options typically have slower-releasing carbohydrates.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Add a side salad or some raw vegetables like carrots or cucumbers to your meal to increase fiber intake, which can help moderate glucose spikes.

Opt for Whole Cheese

Use whole cheese instead of processed cheese. Whole cheeses tend to have fewer additives and can help keep blood sugar levels more stable.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add avocado or a small handful of nuts, like almonds or walnuts, to your meal. Healthy fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Pairing

Include a protein source such as chicken breast, turkey slices, or eggs with your bread and cheese. Protein can help to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Be mindful of portion sizes. Reducing the amount of bread can decrease the potential for a glucose spike.

Add Vinegar

Consider adding a splash of vinegar, like balsamic or apple cider, to your salad or meal. Vinegar has properties that can help moderate post-meal glucose spikes.

Slow Down Eating

Chew your food thoroughly and take your time during meals. Eating slowly can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Hydrate Well

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and improve glucose management.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in a light walk or gentle exercise after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels.
