How to consume Guacamole without glucose spikes

Pair with High-Fiber Foods

Incorporate foods like whole grain crackers or whole wheat tortillas to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein such as grilled chicken or black beans alongside your guacamole. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Non-Starchy Vegetables

Serve guacamole with slices of cucumber, bell pepper, or cherry tomatoes instead of chips. These vegetables can help reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Limit Portion Size

Keep an eye on the portion size of both the guacamole and the accompanying foods to avoid excessive intake of carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal tea during your meal to help with digestion and metabolism, which can moderate blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of nuts or seeds, like almonds or sunflower seeds, in your meal to help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Opt for Complex Carbohydrates

If you prefer having some form of bread, choose options like whole grain or multigrain bread that have a slower effect on blood sugar.

Increase Physical Activity

A short walk after eating guacamole can help your muscles use some of the glucose from the meal, reducing spikes.

Monitor Timing

Eat smaller, more frequent meals rather than large meals to help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food to better control the quantity you consume and allow your body time to signal when it's full.
