How to consume english pasty without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Eat smaller portions of the pasty to reduce the overall carbohydrate load and help manage blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg to help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add sources of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal to further moderate the rise in blood sugar.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, or bell peppers to add fiber and bulk, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help manage appetite and aid digestion.

Opt for Whole Grains

If making or choosing a pasty, prefer whole grain or wholemeal versions which digest more slowly than refined grains.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process and absorb the nutrients efficiently.

Monitor Timing

Consider the timing of your meal; eating your pasty earlier in the day when your body is more insulin sensitive can be beneficial.

Physical Activity

Engage in light exercise, such as a walk, after eating to help your muscles use glucose more effectively.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of your body's response by checking your blood sugar levels post-meal to understand how different strategies work for you.
