How to consume Greek food without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes of high-carbohydrate dishes. Eating smaller portions can help minimize glucose spikes.

Prioritize Vegetables

Incorporate more non-starchy vegetables like spinach, zucchini, and eggplant into your meal, as they have a slower release of glucose.

Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain options like whole wheat pita instead of white bread or other refined grains.

Protein Inclusion

Include lean proteins such as grilled chicken, fish, or legumes. Protein can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like olive oil or avocados to your meal, which can help slow down digestion and glucose absorption.

Limit Sugary Additives

Be cautious with sauces and dressings that might contain added sugars. Opt for simple olive oil and lemon juice dressings.

Balanced Plates

Ensure your meal includes a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. A well-rounded plate can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal, which can aid in digestion and help prevent overeating.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and enjoy your food, which can aid in better digestion and prevent overeating.

Post-Meal Activity

Consider a short walk after your meal to help with glucose metabolism and reduce spikes.
