How to consume Grilled Ham And Cheese Sandwich without glucose spikes

Incorporate Physical Activity

Go for a brisk walk for 15-30 minutes after eating, which can help your muscles use up excess glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water after your meal, as it helps in maintaining blood sugar levels by diluting blood sugar concentration.

Add Vegetables

Include a side salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, or tomatoes. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread for your sandwich instead of white bread to provide more fiber and slow carbohydrate absorption.

Include Healthy Fats

Add avocado slices or a small handful of nuts as a side, which can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Add Protein

Include a lean protein side, such as grilled chicken or a hard-boiled egg, to help reduce the impact of the carbohydrates on your blood sugar.

Limit Portion Size

Consider having half a sandwich instead of a full one, and pair it with a fiber-rich side to feel full.

Opt for Low-Fat Cheese

Use a lower-fat cheese in your sandwich to reduce the overall fat content without compromising taste.

Monitor Timing

If possible, eat your sandwich earlier in the day when your body is more efficient at processing glucose.

Chew Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly, which can aid in digestion and slow the absorption of sugars.
