How to consume Cheeseburger without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the size of the cheeseburger or eat half, saving the rest for later. This helps in moderating the amount of carbohydrates consumed at one time.

Balanced Plate

Pair your cheeseburger with a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or a salad. These can help slow down glucose absorption.

Whole Grain Bun

Opt for a whole grain or multi-grain bun instead of a white bun to increase fiber intake, which can slow glucose absorption.

Protein Addition

Add a lean protein source such as grilled chicken or turkey to your meal in place of or in addition to the cheeseburger patty to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or nuts in your meal to promote satiety and slow digestion.

Vinegar-based Dressings

Use a vinegar-based dressing on your salad or veggies, as the acetic acid in vinegar can help reduce post-meal glucose levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water with your meal, as staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help maintain balanced blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in a short walk or light exercise after eating to help your muscles use some of the glucose from your meal, lowering blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to allow your body to appropriately digest and respond to the food, which can help in preventing a spike.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating to better understand how different foods affect you and to make informed dietary choices.
