How to consume chicken quesadilla without glucose spikes

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your chicken quesadilla with a side of non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers. These vegetables help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices or a dollop of guacamole with your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help manage blood sugar levels and support overall metabolism.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in a short walk or some light exercise after your meal to help your muscles use glucose more efficiently.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the quesadilla you consume. Eating smaller, more frequent meals can prevent large glucose spikes.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, opt for a whole grain or whole wheat tortilla instead of a white flour tortilla to reduce the impact on your blood sugar.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Be mindful of the overall carbohydrate content in your meal and adjust other meals throughout the day accordingly.

Add a Protein Side

Include a side of lean protein, like grilled chicken or tofu, to further slow glucose absorption.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand how your body responds and adjust your diet accordingly.

Consult a Healthcare Provider

If you're consistently experiencing large glucose spikes, seek advice from a healthcare professional for personalized dietary recommendations.
