How to consume 6" Melt Sub without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Add a side salad or some raw vegetables like carrots or cucumbers to your meal. The fiber content will help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grain Options

If available, opt for a whole grain or multigrain bread for your sub. These are less processed and can help in reducing spikes.

Add Lean Protein

Include additional lean proteins such as turkey breast or chicken breast in your sub. Protein helps to balance blood sugar levels.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Drink water, unsweetened iced tea, or sparkling water with your meal instead of soda or sweetened drinks.

Control Portion Sizes

Consider eating half of the sub and saving the rest for later. Smaller portions can prevent a large spike.

Include a Low-Sugar Fruit

Have a small portion of berries on the side. They provide antioxidants and can help stabilize blood sugar.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Take a short walk after your meal to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Stay Hydrated

Ensure you're drinking enough water throughout the day, as proper hydration can aid in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of how your body responds to the meal and make any necessary adjustments for future meals, such as modifying ingredient choices or meal timing.
