How to consume egg, toasted whole wheat bread without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the toasted whole wheat bread. This will help to lower the overall carbohydrate intake, which can contribute to glucose spikes.

Add Protein

Incorporate additional protein sources into your meal. Consider adding a side of Greek yogurt or cottage cheese, as protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices or a small amount of nuts or seeds. Fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual rise in blood sugar.

Eat Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or bell peppers. These provide fiber that can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Drink Water

Ensure you're well-hydrated by drinking water before and during your meal. Sometimes, thirst is mistaken for hunger, leading to overeating.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try to consume meals at consistent times daily to help regulate blood sugar levels more effectively.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time to chew food thoroughly, which can aid in digestion and may help in avoiding spikes in blood sugar.

Combine Foods Wisely

Pair your whole wheat bread with foods that have a lower impact on blood sugar, like natural peanut butter or hummus, to balance the meal's effect.

Experiment with Bread Alternatives

If possible, try bread alternatives like sprouted grain bread that might have a milder impact on blood sugar levels.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in regular physical activity, such as a walk after meals, to help your body use glucose more effectively.
