How to consume garlic bread, vegetable soup (home recipe) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the garlic bread to minimize the carbohydrate intake, which can help in reducing the glucose spike.

Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or whole wheat bread for your garlic bread instead of white bread. These options typically contain more fiber, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein such as grilled chicken or tofu in your meal. Protein can help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts to your meal. Fats can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.

Vegetable Variety

Increase the amount of non-starchy vegetables in your soup, such as leafy greens, broccoli, or zucchini, to add fiber and volume without affecting blood sugar significantly.

Lentils and Legumes

Consider adding lentils or chickpeas to your soup. They are high in fiber and protein, which can help control blood sugar levels.

Vinegar

Add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your soup or as a dressing. Acids can help slow down the conversion of carbohydrates into sugar.

Timing

Try eating your meal at a slower pace to allow your body more time to process the carbohydrates gradually.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk after eating, to help your body use up glucose more efficiently.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body maintain optimal metabolic function and to aid in digestion.
