How to consume english swedish meatballs without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of the Swedish meatballs and accompany them with a larger serving of vegetables or a salad.
Add Fiber
Incorporate high-fiber foods like lentils or chickpeas into your meal, either as a side dish or by mixing them with the meatballs.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats to your meal, such as avocado or a handful of nuts, which can help slow down digestion and moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If serving the meatballs with pasta or bread, opt for whole grain options such as whole wheat pasta or whole grain bread.
Vegetable Emphasis
Fill at least half of your plate with non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to help balance the meal.
Protein Pairing
Increase the proportion of protein relative to carbs by adding a boiled egg or a piece of grilled chicken to your meal.
Hydrate Wisely
Drink water or herbal tea with your meal instead of sugary beverages, which can contribute to glucose spikes.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly, which can improve digestion and reduce the likelihood of a spike.
Plan for Movement
Incorporate a post-meal walk or light exercise to help manage blood sugar levels effectively.
Monitor Carbohydrate Sources
Be mindful of the type and amount of carbohydrate sources in your meal, aiming for those that release energy more slowly.
