How to consume Junk food without glucose spikes

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water to help your body process glucose more efficiently and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Take a brisk walk or engage in light exercises shortly after eating to help your muscles use up some of the excess glucose in your bloodstream.

Eat Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate foods high in fiber like lentils, chickpeas, and quinoa into your diet to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Include Healthy Fats

Add small amounts of healthy fats such as avocados, nuts, or olive oil to your meals to help regulate your blood sugar.

Consume Protein-Rich Snacks

Snack on protein-rich foods like almonds, Greek yogurt, or cottage cheese to help manage hunger and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Be mindful of portion sizes and try to eat smaller, balanced meals throughout the day to prevent large spikes in glucose levels.

Practice Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food to aid digestion and help your body better regulate blood sugar levels.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Stay away from sodas and sugary drinks, which can cause immediate spikes in blood sugar.

Plan Balanced Meals

When eating junk food, pair it with a balanced meal that includes vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains to help buffer the sugar intake.

Consider a Blood Sugar Monitor

If you experience frequent spikes, consider using a continuous glucose monitor to understand your body's response to different foods and make necessary adjustments.
