How to consume burrito with beef, cheese and chili peppers without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the size of your burrito to lower the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help minimize glucose spikes.

Add Fiber

Incorporate more fiber-rich ingredients like black beans or lentils, which can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for a whole wheat or low-carb tortilla instead of a regular flour one to decrease the rapid rise in blood sugar.

Include Vegetables

Add non-starchy vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, or bell peppers. These are low in carbohydrates and can help balance the meal.

Protein Boost

Ensure there is enough protein from the beef or add extra sources like grilled chicken or tofu to help slow digestion and the release of glucose.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or a small amount of nuts, which can help slow down the digestion process.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Vinegar

Consider adding a splash of vinegar or a vinegar-based salsa to your burrito. The acetic acid in vinegar can improve insulin sensitivity and help reduce glucose spikes.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to process the meal, which can help in moderating glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your muscles use up some of the glucose and reduce blood sugar levels.
