How to consume Insulin 4 units without glucose spikes

Monitor Portion Sizes

Start by monitoring and reducing the portion sizes of high-carbohydrate foods you consume. Smaller portions can help prevent large glucose spikes.

Combine with Protein or Healthy Fats

Include protein sources like chicken, fish, or legumes, or healthy fats such as avocado or nuts with your meals. These can slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain options like quinoa, barley, or whole grain bread instead of refined grains. These are digested more slowly and can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Dietary Fiber

Include more fiber-rich foods, such as lentils, beans, and vegetables like broccoli and leafy greens, in your meals to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration helps your kidneys flush out excess glucose through urine.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in regular physical activity, such as walking, cycling, or resistance training, which can help your body use insulin more effectively and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Eat Smaller, Frequent Meals

Instead of large meals, try eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Vinegar

Adding vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your meals may help improve your body’s insulin sensitivity.

Limit High-Sugar Desserts

Avoid high-sugar desserts and opt for healthier alternatives like berries or a small piece of dark chocolate.

Manage Stress

Practice stress-reduction techniques such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises, as stress can affect blood sugar levels.
