How to consume 14" pepperoni pizza | beer without glucose spikes

Moderate Portion Size

Limit yourself to 1-2 slices of pizza and enjoy your beer in moderation to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Opt for Thin Crust

Choose a thin crust pizza instead of a regular or deep-dish crust to reduce carbohydrate content, which can help in minimizing glucose spikes.

Add Vegetables

Increase the fiber content of your meal by adding vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach to your pizza. This can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Include a Side Salad

Start your meal with a salad that is rich in fiber. Use ingredients like leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes with a vinaigrette dressing to help slow glucose absorption.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk after your meal, to help your muscles use glucose more effectively and prevent spikes.

Drink Water

Stay hydrated with water during your meal. This can help you feel fuller and may reduce the amount of pizza and beer you consume.

Choose Protein-Rich Toppings

Add protein-rich toppings like grilled chicken or extra cheese to your pizza. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Limit High-Sugar Beers

Choose lighter beers that typically have lower carbohydrate content. Alternatively, consider non-alcoholic or low-carb beer options to reduce the likelihood of a spike.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food, which can reduce the likelihood of overeating and help prevent spikes.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels regularly to understand how different foods affect you and adjust your habits accordingly.
