How to consume Potato French Fries, Steak without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the French fries and steak. Smaller portions will release glucose more slowly into your bloodstream.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include a side of non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or green beans. These can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado or olive oil to your meal. This can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Choose Sweet Potatoes

If possible, substitute regular potato fries with sweet potato fries. They have a slower impact on blood sugar.

Eat Mixed Nuts

Have a small serving of mixed nuts such as almonds or walnuts before your meal to reduce the overall spike.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and reduce the blood sugar spike.

Include a Protein Source

Ensure your steak is lean, and consider adding another low-fat protein source, like grilled chicken or fish, to balance the meal.

Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal. The acidity can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you're having bread with your steak, choose whole-grain options like whole wheat bread or quinoa.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk post-meal, to help your body use up the glucose more effectively.
