How to consume Chicken Shawarma, Potato French Fries without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chicken shawarma and french fries to limit carbohydrate intake and minimize glucose spikes.

Choose Whole Grain Wraps

If possible, opt for whole grain or whole wheat pita wraps instead of regular pita to increase fiber intake and slow down digestion.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more fiber-rich vegetables to your shawarma, such as lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, and spinach. This can help slow the absorption of sugars.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of nuts, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for a Side Salad

Replace french fries with a side salad. Include ingredients like leafy greens, bell peppers, and carrots to add fiber and nutrients.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated helps in better digestion and managing glucose levels.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after your meal to help your body use up glucose more efficiently.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly. This can help with digestion and slow down the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Consider Vinegar

Incorporate a small amount of vinegar, such as in a salad dressing, as it may help in moderating blood sugar levels when consumed with meals.

Monitor Timing

Try to consume your meal at a time when you are likely to be active afterward, as your body will use the glucose more effectively.
