Start by reducing the portion size of pasta to moderate the amount of carbohydrates consumed in one sitting.

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken or turkey to your meal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add a small amount of healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for whole-grain or legume-based pasta alternatives. They contain more fiber, which can help reduce the spike.

Add fiber-rich vegetables such as bell peppers, spinach, or zucchini to your dish. Fiber can slow carbohydrate digestion.

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to process the carbohydrates more efficiently.

Drink a glass of water before eating to help with digestion and to make you feel fuller, which can reduce the amount of food consumed.

Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your meal or consuming a small vinegar-based salad before eating, as it may help lower blood sugar spikes.

Go for a short walk or engage in light exercise after your meal to help your muscles use the glucose from your bloodstream.

Pair your pasta meal with lower-carb meals throughout the day to balance your overall carbohydrate intake.
