How to consume Spaghetti/Marinara Pasta Sauce without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of the pasta you consume. Smaller portions will result in a smaller glucose spike.
Slow-Release Carbs
Consider using whole grain or legume-based pasta alternatives, such as chickpea or lentil pasta, which digest more slowly.
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein like grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu with your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a healthy fat source such as olive oil, avocado, or nuts to your dish to slow down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Enhance your pasta dish with high-fiber vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to help moderate blood sugar levels.
Vinegar Boost
Adding a splash of vinegar to your sauce can help lower blood sugar spikes by slowing the digestion process.
Timing of Consumption
Eating your pasta dish alongside a meal, rather than as a stand-alone dish, can help mitigate its impact on blood sugar levels.
Chew Thoroughly
Take your time to chew food well, which aids in slower digestion and more moderate blood sugar responses.
Balanced Meal
Ensure that your meal is well-balanced with adequate protein, fat, and fiber to minimize spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support overall digestion and metabolism.
