How to consume Outside food without glucose spikes

Monitor Portion Sizes

When eating outside, try to control the portion sizes by either sharing your meal or saving half for later. This can help manage the overall intake of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for dishes that include whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, or whole wheat bread. These tend to cause a slower rise in blood sugar levels.

Include Protein and Healthy Fats

Incorporate lean proteins such as chicken, fish, or tofu, and healthy fats like avocados, nuts, and olive oil to slow down the absorption of glucose.

Opt for High-Fiber Foods

Choose meals with a good amount of vegetables or legumes like beans and lentils, as they can help stabilize blood sugar.

Drink Water

Stay hydrated with water or unsweetened beverages instead of sugary drinks or alcohol, which can cause blood sugar spikes.

Substitute Sugary Desserts

If you’re craving dessert, opt for fruit like berries or apple slices, which have a lesser impact on blood sugar compared to high-sugar desserts.

Be Mindful of Sauces and Dressings

Request sauces and dressings on the side, as they often contain added sugars and hidden carbs. Use them sparingly or choose vinaigrettes and olive oil instead.

Engage in Light Activity

After your meal, take a short walk or engage in light physical activity to help your body use up excess glucose more efficiently.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your meal to give your body time to process food and signal when you are full, reducing the risk of overeating.

Plan Ahead

When possible, review the restaurant menu beforehand to make informed choices, and don’t hesitate to ask the staff about healthier preparation methods or ingredient options.
