How to consume Cheeseburger (Single Patty With Condiments), Potato French Fries without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the size of your cheeseburger and fries serving to minimize the overall impact on your blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a side salad with leafy greens and a vinaigrette dressing to increase fiber intake, which can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Whole Grain Bun

Opt for a whole grain bun instead of a regular one to introduce more complex carbohydrates, which are digested more slowly.

Swap Fries

Replace French fries with a side of sweet potato fries or roasted sweet potato wedges, as these alternatives have a lower impact on blood sugar.

Additional Protein

Add a source of protein, such as grilled chicken or a boiled egg, to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate avocado slices or a small amount of nuts, like almonds or walnuts, to improve satiety and slow down digestion.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal tea with your meal instead of sugary beverages to avoid additional spikes.

Meal Timing

Consider having your meal alongside a small portion of a low-sugar fruit, like berries, which can provide natural sweetness and additional fiber.

Cheese Selection

Choose a cheese with less aged content, like mozzarella, which may slightly reduce the meal’s overall impact.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk after your meal, to help utilize glucose more effectively.
