How to consume english beef stew without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the beef stew to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale into your stew. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Protein and Healthy Fats

Add a side of grilled chicken or a small portion of nuts to stabilize your blood sugar by slowing digestion.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you're having bread or a side dish, choose whole grain options such as quinoa or barley. These provide fiber that can help balance blood sugar levels.

Stay Active Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, to help your body process the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Limit other high-carbohydrate foods during the meal to prevent compounding the glucose spike.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to help your body manage blood sugar levels.

Prioritize Fiber

Include a salad or a side of beans with your meal to add fiber, which can slow down the glucose absorption.

Mind Your Timing

Spread out your meals and snacks throughout the day to avoid overwhelming your system with too much glucose at once.

Consider Vinegar

Adding a bit of vinegar to your stew or as a dressing for a side salad can help in reducing the spike by enhancing insulin sensitivity.
