How to consume cheeseburger with tomato and/or catsup on bun without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Buns

Opt for whole grain or whole wheat buns instead of refined white buns to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include fiber-rich vegetables like lettuce, spinach, or avocado in your burger to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Use Smaller Portions of Buns

Consider using only one half of the bun, or choosing a smaller bun size to reduce the carbohydrate content.

Opt for Lean Protein

Choose lean protein sources such as grilled chicken or turkey patties, instead of fatty beef patties, to reduce fat content which can impact how your body processes carbohydrates.

Limit or Avoid Catsup

Catsup contains sugar, so limit its use or replace it with mustard or a low-sugar sauce to reduce overall sugar intake.

Add a Side of Non-Starchy Vegetables

Serve your cheeseburger with a side of non-starchy vegetables like a side salad, steamed broccoli, or roasted asparagus.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like a slice of avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds to your meal, which can help slow down the digestion process.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal, as staying hydrated can help in managing blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein-Rich Foods

Include a small portion of additional protein, like a hard-boiled egg or a handful of nuts, to help balance your meal.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Be mindful of portion sizes, especially with high-calorie toppings and sides, to manage overall calorie and carbohydrate intake effectively.
