How to consume Chicken Gyro Sandwich without glucose spikes

Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers to your sandwich. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Whole Grain or Low-Carb Wraps

Instead of using a regular pita or white bread, choose whole grain or low-carb wraps to help steady blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include sources of healthy fats such as avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil, which can help moderate the rise in blood sugar.

Control Portion Size

Be mindful of the portion size of your sandwich to prevent excessive carbohydrate intake in one sitting.

Pair with a Protein Snack

Consider adding a small side of yogurt or a handful of nuts to your meal. The additional protein can help balance your overall intake.

Choose Lean Protein

Ensure that the chicken used is grilled rather than fried, which can help reduce the fat content and prevent spikes.

Hydrate Wisely

Drink water or unsweetened beverages with your meal, as sugary drinks can exacerbate glucose spikes.

Exercise Post-Meal

A light walk after eating can help your body utilize glucose more efficiently and mitigate spikes.

Mind the Sauces

Be cautious with sauces and dressings, opting for those with no added sugars or making homemade versions with yogurt or lemon juice.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how your body responds to different variations and adjust your ingredients accordingly to maintain stable blood sugar levels.
