How to consume grilled chicken, portuguese shawarma without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the grilled chicken shawarma you consume to minimize the overall impact on your blood glucose levels.

Include Fiber-Rich Sides

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, or cauliflower to your meal. These can slow digestion and help regulate blood sugar.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add sources of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. Fats can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grain Wraps

If possible, opt for whole-grain or whole wheat wraps instead of refined flour wraps to increase fiber content and reduce the spike.

Add Protein-Rich Foods

Include additional protein sources such as legumes or tofu in your meal to help stabilize blood glucose levels.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and potentially reduce blood sugar spikes.

Eat Mindfully

Chew your food slowly and practice mindful eating to enhance digestion and reduce the likelihood of a glucose spike.

Monitor Timing

Consider consuming the shawarma alongside or after a balanced meal to mitigate the impact on blood sugar.

Physical Activity

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

Consult a Nutritionist

Work with a healthcare professional to adjust your diet plan to better manage glucose levels.
