How to consume Burrito With Chicken, Beans And Cheese without glucose spikes

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more high-fiber vegetables to your burrito, such as lettuce, spinach, bell peppers, or avocado. This can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for a whole grain or whole wheat tortilla instead of a refined flour one. This can help moderate the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Consider eating a smaller portion of the burrito. You can cut the burrito in half and save the rest for later to avoid a spike.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as a small amount of guacamole or a sprinkle of nuts. This can help slow digestion and absorption.

Balance with Protein

Add more lean protein sources along with the chicken, such as tofu or additional beans, to help stabilize your blood sugar.

Hydrate Well

Drink water with your meal, as staying well-hydrated can support healthy blood sugar levels.

Slow Eating

Take time to eat slowly and mindfully, which can help you better manage your food intake and digestion.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity before your meal, such as a short walk, which can help your body manage blood sugar more effectively.

Timing and Frequency

Consider having your burrito at a time when you're not having other high-carbohydrate meals, and try to space out your meals to allow your body time to process them.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar responses and adjust the ingredients or meal timing accordingly to see what works best for you.
