How to consume Cottage Cheese, Mixed Salad Greens without glucose spikes

Pair with Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of healthy fats, such as avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds, to your salad. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Protein

Mix in a lean protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or boiled eggs. Protein can assist in moderating blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Boost your salad with non-starchy, fiber-rich vegetables such as bell peppers, cucumbers, or broccoli. Fiber helps to stabilize blood sugar.

Use a Vinegar-Based Dressing

Opt for a dressing made with vinegar or lemon juice rather than creamy dressings. The acidity can help reduce blood sugar spikes.

Mindful Portion Sizes

Consume cottage cheese in moderation and monitor your portion size of mixed greens to balance the meal effectively.

Include Whole Grains

If you want to add grains, choose a small serving of quinoa or barley, which are known for their slower absorption.

Hydration Before Meals

Drink a glass of water before your meal to aid digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Chew Thoroughly

Take time to chew your food well, which can improve digestion and slow down the absorption of sugars.

Consider Timing

Eat your cottage cheese and salad as part of a balanced meal rather than a snack to help manage energy levels throughout the day.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep an eye on your body's response and make any necessary adjustments to your meal composition or sizes for better glucose control.
