How to consume Chicken Drumstick Original Recipe without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or Brussels sprouts with your meal. These can help slow down digestion and prevent a spike in blood sugar.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as those from avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts. These can improve insulin sensitivity and slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Whole Grains
If you're having a side dish, choose whole grains like quinoa or barley, which have a slower release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Incorporate Legumes
Add a side of lentils or chickpeas to your meal. These provide protein and fiber, which can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help with proper digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Eat Smaller Portions
Consider having a smaller portion of the chicken drumstick and fill up on more vegetables instead.
Opt for a Consistent Exercise Routine
Regular physical activity can improve insulin sensitivity and help manage blood sugar levels after meals.
Chew Thoroughly and Eat Slowly
Taking time to eat can help your body process the food more effectively and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.
Add a Vinegar-Based Dressing
A salad with a vinegar-based dressing can help improve your body's response to carbohydrates and lower the chance of a spike.
Monitor Your Blood Sugar
Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods affect you, and adjust your meal composition accordingly.
