How to consume Cooked Salmon without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, leafy greens, or bell peppers with your cooked salmon. These vegetables help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado or a small serving of nuts like almonds or walnuts. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Legumes

Pair your salmon with a side of lentils or chickpeas. These foods have a slow release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you prefer a carbohydrate side, choose whole grains like quinoa or bulgur, which have a slower impact on glucose levels compared to refined grains.

Moderate Portion Sizes

Be mindful of portion sizes for all components of your meal. Overeating, even healthy foods, can contribute to glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help regulate glucose levels.

Incorporate Vinegar

Add a splash of vinegar to your salad or as part of your marinade for the salmon. Vinegar can help reduce a spike in glucose levels.

Choose Low-Sugar Dressings and Sauces

Use dressings and sauces that are low in sugar and carbohydrates to avoid additional glucose spikes.

Eat Slowly and Chew Thoroughly

Taking your time with your meal can help your body better manage glucose absorption.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try to eat meals at consistent times each day to help maintain stable glucose levels.
