How to consume Pepperoni Pizza without glucose spikes

Eat Smaller Portions

Limit the amount of pizza you consume in one sitting to reduce the carbohydrate load and prevent blood sugar spikes.

Add a Side Salad

Incorporate a salad with leafy greens, such as spinach or kale, which can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Whole Grain Crust

Choose a pizza with a whole grain crust instead of refined flour crust to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Protein

Add protein-rich toppings like grilled chicken or lean turkey to your pizza to help slow down digestion and stabilize blood sugar.

Drink Water

Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Walk After Eating

Engage in a light walk after your meal to help your muscles use up glucose, reducing blood sugar levels.

Limit Added Sugars

Avoid additional sugary beverages or desserts alongside your pizza meal.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of nuts on your salad to slow glucose absorption.

Try a Vegetable-Based Crust

Experiment with pizza crusts made from cauliflower or other vegetables, which are lower in carbohydrates.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to regulate blood sugar effectively.
