How to consume mixed salad greens, roasted broiled or baked chicken without glucose spikes

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats to your salad, such as avocado slices, olive oil, or a handful of nuts. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Mix in non-starchy vegetables like bell peppers, cucumbers, or broccoli. These vegetables are high in fiber and can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Add Vinegar-Based Dressing

Use a vinegar-based dressing instead of creamy dressings. The acetic acid in vinegar can help improve your body’s insulin sensitivity.

Sprinkle Some Seeds

Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds to your salad. Seeds are rich in fiber and can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Beans or Lentils

Consider adding a small amount of beans or lentils to your salad. They are high in protein and fiber, which can help reduce glucose spikes.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Chewing your food thoroughly and eating slowly can aid in better digestion and slower absorption of glucose.

Pair with a Low-Sugar Beverage

Drink water, herbal tea, or other low-sugar beverages with your meal to avoid additional sugar intake.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Keep an eye on the portion size of your salad and chicken to ensure you're not consuming more carbohydrates than your body can handle at once.

Consider Timing

Try to eat mixed salad greens and chicken earlier in the day when your body might be more effective at managing blood sugar levels.

Regularly Monitor Blood Sugar

Check your blood sugar levels before and after eating to understand how different foods affect you, and adjust your meal composition accordingly.
