How to consume hummus, toasted sour dough bread without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of both hummus and sourdough bread to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables like cucumbers, bell peppers, or cherry tomatoes with your meal. Fiber can help slow down digestion and the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or a boiled egg, to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain sourdough bread, as it may have a more moderate impact on blood sugar compared to white sourdough.

Pair with Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado or a few nuts, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew thoroughly and eat slowly. This can aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and potentially reduce the spike.

Monitor Timing

Consider eating hummus and bread as part of a larger, balanced meal rather than as a standalone snack to distribute the carbohydrate load more evenly.

Physical Activity

Plan a short walk or some light physical activity after eating to help your body use up some of the glucose.

Meal Composition

Balance your overall meal with more non-starchy vegetables and less bread to reduce the glycemic load.
