How to consume chicken sandwich, german potato wedges without glucose spikes
Opt for Whole Grain Bread
Replace the regular bread in your chicken sandwich with whole grain or whole wheat bread, which contains more fiber and has a slower impact on blood sugar levels.
Add Non-Starchy Vegetables
Include a generous amount of non-starchy vegetables like lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, or bell peppers in your sandwich to increase fiber content and slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Choose Lean Protein
Ensure the chicken is grilled or baked rather than fried to reduce added fats and calories, which can contribute to glucose spikes.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a slice of avocado or a small amount of hummus to your sandwich. Healthy fats can help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Moderate Portion Size
Consider eating a smaller portion of the sandwich or wedges to reduce the overall carbohydrate load in a single meal.
Include a Side Salad
Accompany your meal with a side salad rich in leafy greens and a light vinaigrette dressing to add fiber and nutrients.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water with your meal, which can aid in digestion and prevent overeating.
Opt for Sweet Potato Wedges
If possible, replace German potato wedges with baked sweet potato wedges. They offer more nutrients and fiber.
Time Your Carbohydrates
Consuming carbohydrates after a mixed meal that includes protein and fats can help in preventing a rapid spike in blood sugar.
Engage in Light Activity
A short walk after eating can help reduce blood sugar spikes by enhancing insulin sensitivity and promoting glucose uptake by muscles.
