How to consume Large Hamburger without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain or Lettuce Wraps

Opt for whole grain buns or wrap your burger in lettuce to increase fiber intake, which can help slow glucose absorption.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Enhance your burger with non-starchy vegetables like tomatoes, onions, spinach, or cucumbers, which can provide fiber and nutrients without causing blood sugar spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado or a small amount of olive oil-based dressing to your meal. Healthy fats can help slow the digestion process.

Pair with Protein-Rich Sides

Choose sides like a hard-boiled egg or a small portion of nuts instead of fries. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can improve digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a walk after your meal to help your muscles use glucose more effectively.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat, allowing your body to better manage the absorption of sugars.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Consider eating only half of the burger or opting for a smaller portion to reduce the overall intake of carbohydrates.
