How to consume Herring without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods
Include high-fiber vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale in your meal. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate sources of healthy fats such as avocados or nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts) to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Protein
Consider adding lean protein sources like grilled chicken or tofu to your meal to help moderate glucose spikes.
Incorporate Vinegar
Use a small amount of vinegar-based dressing on your salad or vegetables. Vinegar may help improve insulin sensitivity.
Drink Plenty of Water
Stay well-hydrated by drinking water before and during your meal to help with digestion and glucose management.
Add Whole Grains
If you are having a carbohydrate source with your herring, choose whole grains like quinoa or barley, which are digested more slowly.
Mind Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the portion size of herring and any other carbohydrate-containing foods in your meal to prevent excessive glucose spikes.
Engage in Light Activity
Consider a short walk or light activity after eating to help your body utilize glucose more effectively.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to eat slowly and enjoy each bite, which can aid in digestion and blood sugar control.
Monitor Your Response
Pay attention to how your body responds to herring and adjust your meal components accordingly for better glucose management.
