How to consume broiled chicken fillet sandwich with cheese, lettuce, tomato and non mayonnaise spread on whole wheat roll without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the sandwich to decrease the overall intake of carbohydrates and proteins that contribute to the spike.

Whole Wheat Roll

Ensure the whole wheat roll is truly whole grain. Sometimes, labels can be misleading. Opt for bread with visible grains and seeds, as they typically have a lower impact on glucose levels.

Add Fiber

Increase fiber content by adding vegetables such as spinach or cucumber to your sandwich. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices instead of cheese, as they can help moderate blood sugar spikes by slowing digestion.

Protein Choice

Ensure that the broiled chicken is skinless and cooked with minimal oil. Consider pairing it with a small portion of plant-based proteins like hummus to balance the meal.

Non-Mayonnaise Spread

Double-check the spread you're using to ensure it doesn't contain hidden sugars. Consider using mustard or a homemade yogurt-based spread instead.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before eating. This can help with digestion and may moderate blood sugar levels.

Timing

Eat your meal slowly and at regular intervals to help your body manage the blood sugar increase more effectively.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light activity after eating. Physical movement can help your muscles use glucose more effectively, reducing spikes.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood glucose levels before and after eating. Adjust future meals based on these observations to suit your body's responses better.
