How to consume 14" pepperoni pizza, mixed salad greens without glucose spikes

Pair with High-Fiber Foods

Incorporate additional high-fiber foods into your meal, such as beans or lentils, which can help moderate glucose levels by slowing down digestion and absorption.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts with your meal. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize your glucose response.

Opt for Whole Grain Alternatives

If possible, choose a whole grain or thin crust option for your pizza. Whole grains digest more slowly, resulting in a more stable glucose response.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to your salad. Protein can help reduce the rate at which carbohydrates are absorbed.

Hydrate Properly

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal. Staying hydrated can help with digestion and maintain stable glucose levels.

Portion Control

Pay attention to portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can reduce the overall load of carbohydrates and sugars, leading to less pronounced glucose spikes.

Pre-Meal Snack

Consider having a small snack that includes protein and fiber before your meal, such as hummus with carrot sticks, to help prepare your body to handle the carbohydrates more effectively.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time to chew your food well. This can aid in digestion and potentially slow down the absorption process.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try to eat meals at consistent times each day to help your body anticipate and better manage glucose levels.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. This can help utilize the glucose in your bloodstream, reducing spikes.
