How to consume Fried Calamari without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of fried calamari to reduce overall carbohydrate and fat intake, which can help moderate the glucose response.

Balanced Meal Composition

Pair the calamari with a balanced meal that includes lean proteins and healthy fats, such as grilled chicken or avocado, to slow down digestion and absorption.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Include fiber-rich foods like leafy greens, broccoli, or a side salad with a vinaigrette dressing to help slow glucose absorption.

Whole Grains

If you're having grains with your meal, opt for whole grains like quinoa or barley, which are digested more slowly.

Healthy Fat Sources

Add foods rich in healthy fats, such as nuts or olive oil, to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal and the day to help your body metabolize carbohydrates efficiently.

Limit Sugary Beverages

Avoid or limit sugary drinks that can contribute to glucose spikes, opting for water or unsweetened beverages instead.

Vinegar or Lemon

Incorporate vinegar or lemon juice in your meal, as these can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by chewing slowly and savoring each bite, which can aid digestion and help prevent overeating.
