How to consume tamale with meat without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the number of tamales you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels.

Protein Pairing

Include a lean protein source, such as grilled chicken or tofu, alongside your meal. This can help moderate your blood sugar response.

Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables, such as broccoli, spinach, or asparagus, to your meal. These vegetables can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds into your meal. These can help slow digestion and keep your blood sugar steady.

Whole Grains

Choose a whole grain or complex carbohydrate source like quinoa or barley as a side dish to provide more sustained energy levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your body use up glucose more efficiently.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite. This practice can prevent overeating and help your body more effectively manage glucose levels.

Monitor Your Intake

Keep track of how your body responds to different foods. This will help you make informed choices in the future.

Regular Meals

Maintain a consistent eating schedule to help regulate your blood sugar levels throughout the day.
