How to consume english fish and chips without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both the fish and chips. Opt for a smaller serving to decrease the overall carbohydrate intake.

Choose Whole Grain Alternatives

Consider swapping regular batter for a whole grain or oat-based batter for the fish. These alternatives may have a slower release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Add Vinegar

Use malt vinegar on your fish and chips. Vinegar can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing down digestion.

Increase Fiber Intake

Accompany your meal with a side of green vegetables like broccoli, kale, or a mixed salad. These fiber-rich foods can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Protein-Rich Sides

Add protein-rich foods like a boiled egg or a small portion of grilled chicken to your meal. Protein can help slow the digestion process and reduce glucose spikes.

Opt for Sweet Potato Chips

Instead of regular chips, try using sweet potatoes. They generally have a more stable impact on blood sugar levels.

Healthy Cooking Methods

If possible, bake or grill the fish instead of frying, and use an air fryer for the chips to reduce the fat content.

Balanced Beverages

Choose water, unsweetened tea, or herbal infusions instead of sugary drinks to accompany your meal.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite, as this can help your body process the carbohydrates more gradually.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in a light walk or some form of gentle exercise after eating to help your body use the glucose more effectively.
