How to consume italian pasta with salmon without glucose spikes

Opt for Whole Grain Pasta

Choose whole grain or whole wheat pasta instead of regular pasta to slow down digestion and reduce spikes.

Portion Control

Keep your pasta serving size in check to avoid excessive carbohydrate intake.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers into your pasta dish to increase fiber content and reduce the impact on glucose levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as olive oil or avocado to your meal to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Pairing

Ensure adequate protein intake, such as grilled chicken or legumes, alongside your salmon to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Cook Pasta Al Dente

Cook pasta until it's slightly firm to the bite, as this can lower the glycemic impact.

Incorporate Vinegar

Add a splash of vinegar-based dressing or lemon juice to your pasta salad to help moderate glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to support digestion and better control blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing of Meals

Try to consume pasta dishes earlier in the day rather than at dinner time to give your body ample time to manage blood sugar levels.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after eating to help manage post-meal blood sugar levels effectively.
