How to consume Chicken Shawarma, Coffee With Milk without glucose spikes

Incorporate More Fiber

Add extra vegetables like lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers to your chicken shawarma. The fiber in these vegetables can help slow down glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grain Options

If possible, opt for a whole grain wrap or pita instead of a white flour one. Whole grains are digested more slowly.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a small portion of healthy fats, such as avocado or a drizzle of olive oil, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Drink Black Coffee

Switch to black coffee instead of coffee with milk or use a milk alternative that is lower in carbohydrates, such as almond or coconut milk.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the shawarma wrap and coffee. Smaller quantities can lead to smaller glucose spikes.

Protein Balance

Ensure your meal has adequate protein, which can help keep blood sugar levels stable. You might add a side of hummus or a boiled egg.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help digestion and reduce cravings that could lead to overeating.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew thoroughly and enjoy your meal. This can improve digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in a light walk or some form of gentle exercise after eating to help your body metabolize the glucose.

Monitor Timing

Try to avoid eating late in the evening as insulin sensitivity can be lower at night, leading to higher glucose levels.
