How to consume fajita chicken without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the fajita chicken to limit the overall intake of carbohydrates and sugars that can cause spikes.

Whole Grains

If you are including tortillas, opt for whole-grain versions as they have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and leafy greens to your meal. These are high in fiber and can help moderate the absorption of sugars.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or a small amount of cheese to your fajitas. Fats can slow digestion and help prevent rapid spikes.

Protein Balance

Ensure that your chicken is balanced with other proteins such as beans or lentils, which are digested slowly.

Mindful Eating

Eat your meal slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and reduce the speed at which glucose enters the bloodstream.

Hydration

Drink water throughout your meal to help with digestion and avoid sugary drinks that can increase blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light exercise, such as a walk, after eating to help use up excess glucose in the bloodstream.

Monitor Sauce and Additives

Be cautious with sauces and seasonings that might contain hidden sugars. Opt for homemade or sugar-free versions.

Meal Timing

Try eating at regular intervals and avoid skipping meals, which can lead to exaggerated blood sugar responses.
