How to consume french homemade pizza without glucose spikes

Incorporate Whole Grains

Use whole grain flour or a blend of whole grain and almond flour for the pizza crust to slow down the release of glucose.

Add Protein

Include lean proteins like grilled chicken, turkey slices, or tofu as toppings to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber

Top your pizza with high-fiber vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, mushrooms, or artichokes to aid in slowing down glucose absorption.

Healthy Fats

Sprinkle some seeds like flaxseeds or chia seeds, or drizzle a small amount of olive oil on top to include healthy fats that can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Portion Control

Opt for smaller portion sizes to reduce the overall carbohydrate load from the pizza.

Balance with Salad

Pair your pizza with a side salad that includes leafy greens and a vinaigrette dressing to add more fiber and nutrients to your meal.

Timing of Consumption

Eat your pizza alongside a meal or snack that contains protein or healthy fats to create a more balanced meal.

Hydrate Wisely

Drink plenty of water before and during the meal to aid in digestion and help maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and properly signal when you are full.

Physical Activity

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