How to consume Chicken Shawarma, French Fries (In Vegetable Oil) without glucose spikes

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Add a side of vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or a small mixed salad to increase fiber intake. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Balance with Protein

Incorporate a small portion of protein-rich foods such as lentils or chickpeas to help balance your meal and provide sustained energy.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, opt for whole wheat or whole grain wraps instead of refined flour wraps for your shawarma, as they have a slower release of sugars.

Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats like avocado or nuts to your meal. These fats can help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the fries and shawarma to lessen the overall impact on blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Vinegar-Based Dressings

Use a vinegar-based dressing on salads, as vinegar can help with glucose control.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help enhance insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Choose water or unsweetened beverages over sugary drinks that can further spike your glucose levels.

Timing of Meals

Try to eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day rather than consuming large meals at once.
