Start by reducing the portion size of the moussaka you consume to limit the overall carbohydrate intake.

Consume a portion of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or fish, before eating moussaka to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include a side salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes to your meal to increase fiber intake and slow glucose absorption.

Incorporate a small serving of healthy fats, like avocado or a sprinkle of nuts, with your meal to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to aid in digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

If you're preparing moussaka at home, consider using whole grain or low-carb alternatives for any starchy layers to reduce the carbohydrate impact.

Add a splash of vinegar to your salad or moussaka, as it can help reduce the spike in blood sugar levels.

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to help your body use up some of the glucose more efficiently.

Try to eat moussaka earlier in the day rather than at night, as your body may process carbohydrates more efficiently earlier in the day.

Practice mindful eating by chewing slowly and focusing on the flavors, which can help in better digestion and control the rate of glucose absorption.
