How to consume Nachos without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of nachos to limit the intake of carbohydrates in one sitting.
Include Protein
Pair your nachos with protein-rich toppings like grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu to help slow down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to help moderate the spike by slowing the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.
Increase Fiber
Add fiber-rich toppings like black beans, lentils, or a variety of vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, tomatoes, spinach) to help slow down digestion.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after eating to help your body process carbohydrates more efficiently.
Choose Whole Grain Options
Opt for whole-grain or multi-grain tortilla chips, which are digested more slowly than refined grain chips.
Exercise Wisely
Engage in light physical activity, like a brisk walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels more quickly.
Monitor Blood Sugar Levels
Keep track of your blood sugar before and after eating nachos to better understand your body's response and adjust accordingly.
Include Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar-based dressing or salsa, which may help in moderating blood sugar levels post-meal.
Limit Additional Carbs
Be mindful of other carbohydrate sources in your meal or snacks throughout the day to keep overall intake balanced.
