How to consume Ham And Cheese Sandwich without glucose spikes

Opt for Whole Grain Bread

Choose whole grain or multigrain bread instead of white bread to increase fiber intake and slow down sugar absorption.

Add Vegetables

Include leafy greens like spinach or arugula, or sliced tomatoes and cucumbers in your sandwich to add bulk and fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a slice of avocado or a spread of hummus to your sandwich. Healthy fats can slow digestion and help regulate blood sugar.

Include Protein

Balance the meal with additional sources of protein such as a boiled egg or a handful of nuts to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Eat Smaller Portions

Reduce the size of your sandwich and accompany it with a salad or a side of veggies.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water or herbal tea with your meal to help with digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. Taking your time can help with digestion and prevent overeating, which can lead to spikes in blood sugar.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk after eating to help your body use some of the glucose from the meal for energy.
