How to consume Beef Steak, Sweet Potato without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of sweet potatoes in your meal. Smaller portions can lead to smaller glucose responses.

Add Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber vegetables such as broccoli or spinach. Fiber can help slow the absorption of sugars.

Combine with Protein and Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with a moderate amount of protein and healthy fats, such as a small serving of avocado or nuts, to slow down digestion and glucose absorption.

Eat a Salad First

Start your meal with a salad containing leafy greens, cucumbers, and a vinegar-based dressing. This can help reduce the overall glucose spike.

Cook Sweet Potatoes Differently

Consider steaming or boiling sweet potatoes rather than baking or frying, as this can affect their impact on blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water during your meal to help with digestion and circulation, potentially moderating glucose levels.

Add Lemon Juice

Squeeze lemon juice over your steak or sweet potatoes. The acidity can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Incorporate Vinegar

Include a small amount of vinegar in your meal, such as in a dressing or marinade. Vinegar has been shown to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Use Herbs and Spices

Season your meal with herbs like cinnamon, which may help manage blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat at a slower pace. This can help regulate the glucose response by giving your body more time to process the food.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after your meal to help your muscles use glucose more effectively.
