How to consume bread with peanut butter without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein like a boiled egg or a few slices of turkey to your meal to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as a few slices of avocado or a handful of nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts) to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grain Bread

Choose whole grain or multigrain bread, which is digested more slowly than white bread, leading to more gradual blood sugar changes.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include vegetables like sliced cucumbers, bell peppers, or leafy greens to add fiber, which can moderate blood sugar spikes.

Focus on Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the bread and peanut butter to minimize the overall carbohydrate intake.

Drink Water

Ensure you stay hydrated by drinking water with your meal, as this can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat, chewing thoroughly, which can help your body process the food more effectively and regulate blood sugar.

Incorporate a Post-Meal Walk

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk after eating, to help your body use the sugar from your meal.

Choose Natural Peanut Butter

Use peanut butter that contains no added sugars or oils to reduce additional sugar intake.

Monitor Timing

Try to consume your meal during the day when your body might be more efficient at processing sugar, rather than late at night.
