How to consume Brown Bread, Hummus without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of both brown bread and hummus. Even nutritious foods can cause spikes in glucose levels if consumed in large quantities.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate more fiber-rich foods like vegetables or legumes alongside your meal. Foods such as broccoli, carrots, or lentils can help slow down the digestion process and stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to your meal. Protein helps to slow the absorption of carbohydrates, which can reduce glucose spikes.

Healthy Fats

Consider adding healthy fats like avocado or a small handful of nuts (almonds, walnuts) to your meal. These can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates.

Hydration

Drink a full glass of water before your meal to enhance digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Timing and Frequency

Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to maintain steady blood sugar levels instead of consuming large meals.

Vary Bread Type

Try opting for whole grain or multigrain bread that contains seeds or oats, which can provide more nutrients and help moderate blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently and reduce spikes.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by taking the time to chew thoroughly and savor your food. This can aid digestion and help prevent overeating.

Monitor Response

Keep track of your body's response to different food combinations to identify what works best for managing your glucose levels.
