How to consume Chicken Salad Or Chicken Spread Sandwich without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the chicken salad or chicken spread sandwich to limit the overall carbohydrate intake.

Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread instead of white bread to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts to your meal, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables such as leafy greens, tomatoes, or cucumbers into your sandwich or along with your meal to slow glucose absorption.

Protein Balance

Ensure the chicken salad or spread contains a good balance of protein and not just fillers such as mayonnaise or dressings, which can increase sugar content.

Vinegar

Consider adding a vinegar-based dressing or a splash of apple cider vinegar to your salad, as vinegar can help manage post-meal glucose levels.

Timing of Meals

Avoid eating the sandwich on an empty stomach; instead, have it after a balanced meal or snack that includes protein or fiber.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk after eating to help lower post-meal glucose levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, giving your body time to process and regulate blood sugar more effectively.
