How to consume French Onion Soup without glucose spikes
Opt for a Low-Carb Version
Consider making or choosing a French onion soup that uses less bread or replaces it with a whole grain or low-carb alternative.
Incorporate Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to help moderate your body's insulin response.
Pair with Protein
Enjoy the soup alongside a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to help slow down digestion and sugar absorption.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include fiber-rich vegetables in your meal, such as spinach or kale, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Choose a Small Portion
Limit your portion size of French onion soup to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.
Select a Whole Grain Bread
If the soup is served with bread, opt for a whole-grain or multigrain variety, which digests more slowly.
Drink Water
Stay well-hydrated before and during your meal to support normal metabolic function and reduce the impact of high-sugar foods.
Consume a Balanced Meal
Include a variety of foods in your meal that provide healthy fats, such as avocados or nuts, to aid in maintaining balanced blood glucose levels.
Monitor Your Blood Sugar
Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after consuming French onion soup to understand its effects and adjust your approach accordingly.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, like walking, after eating to help your body process the carbohydrates more efficiently.
