Limit the number of chicken nuggets and portion of McChicken you consume. Smaller portions can lead to a smaller glucose response.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Pair your meal with fiber-rich foods like a side salad or steamed vegetables to slow down glucose absorption.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices or a small handful of nuts with your meal to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Protein Balance

Add more lean proteins, such as grilled chicken or fish, to balance the meal and slow carbohydrate digestion.

Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Whole Grains

If you have a choice, opt for whole grain options for buns or sides to stabilize blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal, as it can help in digestion and maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
