How to consume mexican salad without glucose spikes
Incorporate Leafy Greens
Add more leafy greens like spinach or kale to your salad, as they are low in carbohydrates and help stabilize blood sugar.
Opt for Whole Beans
Use black beans or pinto beans in moderation. They provide protein and fiber, which can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Add avocados or a small amount of olive oil to your salad. Healthy fats can help keep glucose levels steady.
Choose Lean Proteins
Add grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu to your salad. These proteins help balance the meal and reduce glucose spikes.
Use Vinegar-Based Dressings
Choose dressings like vinaigrette over creamy dressings. Vinegar can help improve insulin sensitivity.
Limit Corn and Tortilla Strips
If your salad includes corn or tortilla strips, reduce the quantity, as they can contribute to higher glucose levels.
Add Nuts or Seeds
Sprinkle a small handful of nuts or seeds like almonds or pumpkin seeds for added fiber and protein.
Mind Portion Sizes
Be mindful of portion sizes, especially with higher-carb ingredients, to avoid consuming excess carbohydrates.
Drink Water with Your Meal
Stay hydrated by drinking water with your meal, as it aids digestion and can help manage blood sugar levels.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time eating, as this can help your body better manage post-meal blood sugar levels.
