How to consume Chicken Breast, Cherry Tomatoes, Microgreens Salad, Mixed Seeds, Pesto Sauce without glucose spikes

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more high-fiber vegetables like broccoli or spinach to your salad to help slow down the absorption of glucose into your bloodstream.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado or a drizzle of olive oil to your salad. Fats can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion and absorption.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes of each ingredient, especially the mixed seeds and pesto sauce, which can be calorie-dense. Balancing your portion sizes can prevent spikes.

Protein Balance

Ensure that the amount of chicken breast is balanced with the rest of the salad ingredients. Too much protein at once can impact blood sugar levels.

Combine with Whole Grains

If you wish to make the meal more filling, consider adding a small portion of whole grains like quinoa or barley, which can provide sustained energy without causing large spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and savor each bite. Eating slowly can improve digestion and help your body manage blood sugar more effectively.

Add a Lemon Vinaigrette

Consider using a homemade lemon vinaigrette instead of pesto sauce to reduce calorie intake while still providing flavor to your salad.

Monitor Ingredients

Keep an eye on the ingredients in your pesto sauce and opt for a version with minimal added sugars or make your own at home to have better control over what goes into it.

Regular Meals

Ensure you're eating regular meals throughout the day. Skipping meals can lead to larger fluctuations in blood sugar when you eventually eat.
