How to consume Green Peas without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of green peas in your meals to minimize their impact on your blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein

Include lean protein sources such as chicken, turkey, fish, or tofu in your meals. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates from green peas.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocados, nuts, or olive oil to your dish. Fats can help moderate blood sugar spikes by slowing digestion.

Eat with Non-Starchy Vegetables

Combine green peas with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or zucchini to add fiber and volume without significantly increasing carbohydrate intake.

Add Whole Grains

If you're having a meal with green peas, include a small portion of whole grains such as quinoa, barley, or bulgur. These grains can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after meals. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Practice Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and pay attention to hunger and fullness cues to avoid overeating, which can exacerbate glucose spikes.

Choose Low-Carb Snacks

If you need a snack, opt for options like nuts, seeds, or Greek yogurt to help keep blood sugar levels stable.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in regular exercise, such as walking or cycling, to improve insulin sensitivity and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand how green peas affect you personally and adjust your diet accordingly.
