How to consume burrito with beans and chili peppers without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Consider reducing the size of the burrito by eating half and saving the rest for later. Smaller portions can help minimize glucose spikes.

Add Healthy Fats

Include avocado slices or a small side of guacamole. Healthy fats can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add extra vegetables to your burrito like lettuce, spinach, or bell peppers. They are high in fiber and can aid in managing blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Wheat or Low-Carb Wraps

Opt for a whole wheat or low-carb tortilla instead of a traditional flour tortilla to reduce carb intake.

Incorporate Protein

Ensure your burrito includes a good source of protein such as grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Consider Vinegar

Drinking a small amount of apple cider vinegar diluted in water before your meal may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration is crucial for overall metabolic function and can help manage blood glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk after your meal. Exercise can help lower blood glucose levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite. This can improve digestion and help your body better manage glucose levels after eating.

Monitor Timing

Try to consume your burrito earlier in the day when your body is typically more insulin-sensitive rather than late at night.
