How to consume Guacamole, Pesto Chicken without glucose spikes

Pair with High-Fiber Foods

Add a serving of whole grains like quinoa or barley to your meal. These grains help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include sources of healthy fats, such as a small portion of nuts or seeds, which can stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Leafy Greens

Serve your meal with a generous portion of leafy greens like spinach or kale. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and provide fiber and nutrients.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the quantities you consume. Eating smaller portions can help manage glucose levels more effectively.

Include a Protein Source

Add a side of legumes, such as lentils or chickpeas. These are excellent protein sources that can help blunt glucose spikes.

Advance Meal Timing

Try consuming your meal earlier in the day when your body is more insulin-sensitive, which can help manage blood sugar levels.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink a glass of water before your meal to promote satiety and help control appetite, potentially reducing the amount you eat.

Add Citrus

Squeeze some lemon or lime juice over your meal. The acidity can help slow digestion and the absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Slow Cooking

Use cooking methods like baking or slow roasting for the chicken to help retain nutrients and potentially have a more gradual impact on blood sugar.

Monitor and Adjust

Pay attention to how your body responds to different foods and adjust your meal composition accordingly to find the best balance for your individual needs.
