How to consume Lebanese dinner without glucose spikes

Start with a Salad

Begin your meal with a salad made from leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Protein

Incorporate lean protein such as grilled chicken or fish, which can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Opt for Whole Grains

Choose whole grain pita bread instead of white pita. The extra fiber helps control blood sugar spikes.

Add Legumes

Include dishes like hummus or lentil soup, which are high in fiber and protein, helping to stabilize blood sugar.

Emphasize Vegetables

Fill half of your plate with non-starchy vegetables like eggplant, zucchini, or bell peppers.

Moderate Portions

Keep an eye on portion sizes, especially with more carb-heavy dishes like rice or bread.

Drink Water

Opt for water or herbal tea instead of sugary beverages to avoid additional sugar intake.

End with a Light Dessert

If you want dessert, choose fresh fruit like berries instead of baklava or other sweet pastries.

Chew Slowly

Take your time to chew thoroughly, which aids in digestion and can help prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Stay Active

If possible, take a short walk after your meal to help your body use the glucose more effectively.
