How to consume Chicken Drumstick without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of chicken drumstick you consume in one sitting to manage the glucose rise.

Pair with Non-starchy Vegetables

Include vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or cauliflower with your meal. These options can help balance the meal’s overall impact on glucose levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add sources of healthy fats like avocado or nuts, which can help slow down digestion and the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Whole Grains

If you’re including grains, choose options like quinoa or barley, which have a slower effect on blood glucose.

Add Protein Alternatives

Complement the chicken with plant-based proteins like lentils or chickpeas. These can help in moderating glucose spikes.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to help with digestion and metabolism.

Opt for a Vinegar-Based Marinade

Marinating your chicken in vinegar-based sauces can help in moderating the rise in glucose levels.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

A walk or light exercise post-meal can aid in managing blood glucose levels.

Monitor Timing

Eat your chicken meal earlier in the day when your body is more efficient at processing glucose.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your meal, which can aid in better digestion and glucose management.
