How to consume english fish and chips without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the fish and chips. Smaller portions will result in a smaller glucose spike.

Opt for Whole Grains

Choose whole grain or high-fiber breading for the fish. Fiber slows down the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.

Add Vegetables

Include a side of non-starchy vegetables, like a salad or steamed broccoli, to your meal. The fiber and nutrients in vegetables help moderate blood sugar levels.

Use Healthier Oils

Prepare your fish and chips using oils that are high in healthy fats, like olive or avocado oil, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Sweet Potatoes

Substitute regular potatoes with sweet potatoes for the chips. They have a more moderate impact on blood sugar.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or beans, to the meal. Protein helps slow the digestion of carbohydrates.

Try Vinegar

Use malt or apple cider vinegar on your fish and chips. The acidity can help lower the meal's impact on blood sugar.

Drink Water

Stay hydrated by drinking water instead of sugary drinks or alcohol, which can exacerbate blood sugar spikes.

Include Legumes

Add a side of lentils, chickpeas, or beans to the meal. These foods are high in fiber and protein, which can help steady blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time eating and chew thoroughly to improve digestion and allow your body to better regulate insulin and glucose levels.
