How to consume Chicken Alfredo without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of Chicken Alfredo to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing blood sugar levels.

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Add non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or zucchini to your dish. These vegetables can slow down digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grain Pasta

If possible, opt for whole grain or whole wheat pasta instead of regular pasta. It contains more fiber, which can aid in minimizing spikes in blood sugar.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a sprinkle of nuts such as almonds or walnuts in your meal to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Balance with Protein

Ensure you have a balanced amount of lean protein in your meal. Consider using grilled chicken breast instead of fried chicken to keep the dish leaner.

Incorporate Vinegar

A small amount of vinegar, such as balsamic or apple cider vinegar, can be added to a side salad to potentially help in reducing post-meal blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

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

Opt for Low-Fat Dairy

Use low-fat milk or cream in the Alfredo sauce to reduce overall calorie intake while keeping the dish flavorful.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by chewing slowly and savoring your meal, which can aid in better digestion and prevent overeating, thus helping to manage blood sugar.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body utilize the glucose from your meal more effectively.
