How to consume 14" pepperoni pizza | beer without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the number of pizza slices you consume. Consider having one or two pieces instead of more, and accompany them with a side of vegetables or salad to fill you up.

Choose Whole Grain Options

If possible, opt for a whole grain or thin crust pizza to reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Snack

Have a small, healthy snack before eating pizza. Nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, are a good choice as they can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Load your pizza with extra vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, or onions. These can help slow down digestion and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Drink Water

Instead of beer, drink water or a zero-calorie beverage. If you want an alcoholic drink, choose a light beer or a small glass of wine instead.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity after your meal, such as a brisk walk. This can help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and enjoy your meal. Eating slowly can help prevent overeating and give your body time to process the meal.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating meals like pizza. This will help you understand how different foods affect your body and allow you to make necessary adjustments.

Incorporate Protein

Add a protein-rich side dish, like grilled chicken or a bean salad. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Consider a Fiber Supplement

If your meal lacks fiber, consider taking a fiber supplement before your meal to help slow the absorption of sugars.
