How to consume english cheese on toast without glucose spikes

Pair with Vegetables

Add a side of leafy greens, like spinach or kale, to your meal. These vegetables help slow down the digestion process and can lead to a more gradual glucose release.

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multi-grain bread instead of white bread. These options contain more fiber, which helps to moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil, which can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Add Protein

Top your cheese on toast with a source of protein like a poached egg or turkey slices. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Monitor Portion Size

Be mindful of the portion size of your cheese and bread. Reducing the amount of cheese can decrease the meal's potential to cause a spike.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid in digestion and metabolism.

Consider Low-Fat Cheese

Use a low-fat cheese to reduce the overall fat content, which can also help in reducing the spike.

Add a Sprinkle of Seeds

Sprinkle chia seeds or flaxseeds on top of your toast for added fiber and nutrients, which can help stabilize blood sugar.

Incorporate a Citrus Side

Have a small citrus fruit like an orange or grapefruit on the side. The acidity can help lower the glycemic impact of your meal.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly to improve digestion and reduce rapid glucose absorption.
