How to consume chicken meatballs, cooked carrots without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein and Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein or healthy fats, such as adding a side of avocado or a small handful of nuts, to help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add fiber-rich vegetables like broccoli or spinach to your meal to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you want to include grains, consider a small portion of quinoa or barley, which will add fiber and nutrients.

Eat Smaller Portions

Reduce the portion size of chicken meatballs and cooked carrots, which can help in controlling the rise in glucose levels.

Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Use a splash of vinegar or lemon juice in your dish. The acidity can help in reducing the rate at which food is converted into sugar.

Include a Salad

Start your meal with a salad containing leafy greens and a light olive oil dressing, which can help in managing glucose response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal to help your body process the carbohydrates more effectively.

Chew Thoroughly

Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can aid in digestion and give your body more time to process the carbohydrates gradually.

Monitor Timing

Consider having your meal earlier in the day when your body is more insulin sensitive, compared to later in the evening.

Regular Physical Activity

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