How to consume Italian Bmt Salad without glucose spikes

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more leafy greens like spinach or kale to your salad. They are low in carbohydrates and help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include sources of healthy fats such as avocado slices, nuts like almonds or walnuts, or seeds like chia or flaxseeds. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Protein

Add grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu to your salad. Protein can help moderate blood sugar spikes by slowing digestion.

Use a Vinaigrette Dressing

Opt for a dressing made with olive oil and vinegar instead of creamy dressings. Olive oil is a healthy fat that can help control blood sugar levels.

Add Beans or Lentils

Include a small portion of chickpeas or lentils in your salad. They are a good source of protein and fiber and can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Limit High-Carb Ingredients

Reduce or avoid high-carb toppings like croutons or breadsticks. Substitute with a sprinkle of seeds or a handful of nuts for added crunch.

Watch Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion sizes of the more carb-heavy ingredients like tomatoes and onions to keep total carbohydrate intake in check.

Hydrate Properly

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal to aid digestion and prevent dehydration, which can affect blood sugar control.

Eat Mindfully

Take your time to eat slowly and savor each bite, which can help with digestion and better control of blood sugar levels.

Monitor Individual Responses

Keep track of how your body responds to different ingredients in the salad and adjust accordingly to minimize glucose spikes in future meals.
