How to consume turkey without glucose spikes

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale to your meal. Their fiber content can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a serving of healthy fats, such as avocado or a small handful of nuts, to your meal. This can help to moderate the glucose response.

Pair with Whole Grains

Opt for a side of whole grains like quinoa or barley, which digest slowly and help to keep blood sugar levels stable.

Opt for Vinegar

Include a salad with a vinaigrette dressing. The acetic acid in vinegar can help mitigate spikes in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Practice Portion Control

Monitor the amount of turkey you consume to avoid overeating, as larger portions are more likely to cause spikes.

Eat Slowly

Take your time while eating to give your body a chance to properly digest and manage the glucose load.

Include Protein

Add another source of lean protein, such as beans or lentils, to your meal to help balance the blood sugar impact of turkey.

Go for a Walk

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

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after meals to understand how different foods and combinations affect you, allowing you to adjust your diet accordingly.
