How to consume Lebanese food without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion sizes of high-carbohydrate dishes such as rice and bread. Instead of a full serving, try half or two-thirds of the usual portion.

Opt for Whole Grains

Choose whole-grain options like brown rice or whole wheat pita, as they are digested more slowly and can help manage glucose levels.

Include More Vegetables

Load your plate with non-starchy vegetables like salads, cucumbers, tomatoes, and grilled vegetables. They are filling and help balance the meal by adding fiber.

Protein Pairing

Include a good source of protein such as grilled chicken, beef, or beans. Protein helps to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats from sources like olive oil, avocados, or nuts. Fats can slow digestion and help mitigate spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. This can help control hunger and prevent overeating.

Limit Sugary Additions

Reduce or avoid sugary sauces and dressings. Opt for lemon juice or vinegar-based dressings instead.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food. This gives your body time to process the meal and helps prevent overconsumption.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after meals to help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how different foods affect your glucose levels and adjust your intake accordingly. Each body responds differently, so personal observation is key.
