How to consume Mexican without glucose spikes
Choose Whole Grains
Opt for whole grain tortillas instead of refined flour tortillas. These provide more fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Include Beans
Add black beans, pinto beans, or lentils to your meal. These are high in fiber and protein, helping stabilize blood sugar.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate avocado or a small amount of nuts or seeds into your dish. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Opt for Lean Proteins
Choose grilled chicken, turkey, or fish instead of fried meats. Protein can help balance blood sugar spikes.
Increase Vegetables
Load up on non-starchy vegetables like lettuce, spinach, bell peppers, and tomatoes. These are low in carbohydrates and high in fiber.
Use Salsa or Pico de Gallo
Instead of creamy dressings or sauces, use salsa or pico de gallo, which are low in added sugars and calories.
Control Portions
Be mindful of your portion sizes, particularly with carbohydrate-rich foods like rice and tortillas.
Drink Water or Unsweetened Beverages
Avoid sugary drinks and opt for water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea to prevent added sugar intake.
Include a Side Salad
Start your meal with a side salad using greens and a vinaigrette dressing to add fiber without excessive calories or sugars.
Limit Refined Sugars
Avoid desserts or sweetened sauces, and if craving something sweet, choose a small portion of fruit.
