How to consume english chicken and spinach without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the chicken and spinach meal to help moderate the post-meal glucose response.

Balance with Low-Carb Vegetables

Include more low-carb vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, or green beans to increase fiber intake and slow down glucose absorption.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil to your meal to help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you’re including grains, choose whole grain options such as quinoa or barley, which can help stabilize blood glucose levels.

Incorporate Protein

Ensure your meal includes a good balance of protein, as it can help to maintain steady blood sugar levels. Consider adding a side of grilled tofu or legumes.

Use Vinegar or Lemon

Dress your spinach with a vinaigrette made from vinegar or lemon juice, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid in digestion and dilute glucose concentration in the bloodstream.

Physical Activity

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

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to signal fullness and better manage glucose levels.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try to maintain regular meal times and avoid eating late at night, which can disrupt blood sugar management.
