How to consume egg omelet or scrambled egg with chorizo without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the egg omelet or scrambled eggs with chorizo to limit the intake of carbohydrates and fats that can contribute to a glucose spike.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate low-starch vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, and tomatoes into your omelet or scrambled eggs. These can add fiber and nutrients, which help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Whole Grains

Consider serving the eggs with a small portion of whole-grain bread or a side of quinoa. These foods have a lower impact on blood sugar and provide additional fiber.

Balance with Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as turkey or chicken breast to your meal. Protein helps slow down digestion and can help keep blood sugar levels stable.

Healthy Fats

Use a small amount of healthy fats such as olive oil or avocado oil for cooking. These fats can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Eat a side of beans or lentils. These foods are high in fiber, which can help slow the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.

Hydration

Drink water or unsweetened tea with your meal. Staying hydrated can help maintain normal glucose levels.

Post-Meal Activity

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

Monitor Ingredients

Check the ingredients in the chorizo to ensure there are no added sugars or high carbohydrate fillers that could contribute to a glucose spike.

Limit Add-Ons

Avoid adding high-sugar or high-carbohydrate sauces or condiments to your eggs, such as ketchup or sugary salsa.
