How to consume healthy lunch without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes; even healthy foods can cause glucose spikes if consumed in large quantities.

Balance Macronutrients

Include a combination of protein, healthy fats, and fiber in your meal. This combination can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and reduce spikes.

Select Whole Grains

Opt for whole grains such as quinoa or barley, as they are digested more slowly than refined grains.

Include Legumes

Add lentils, chickpeas, or black beans to your salad or main dish for their slow-releasing energy properties.

Opt for Non-Starchy Vegetables

Choose vegetables like spinach, broccoli, and bell peppers to fill up your plate.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Use avocados, nuts, or seeds as part of your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and absorption of nutrients.

Chew Slowly

Eating slowly and thoroughly chewing your food can help regulate the digestive process and decrease glucose spikes.

Consider Vinegar

Use a dash of lemon juice or vinegar as a dressing or marinade, as it may help moderate blood sugar levels.

Timely Physical Activity

Engage in light exercise, like walking, after your meal to help lower blood glucose levels naturally.
