How to consume Lebanese - Zaatar Manakeesh without glucose spikes

Balance with Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like grilled chicken or tofu to your meal. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber

Pair your zaatar manakeesh with a side of mixed greens or a fiber-rich salad. Vegetables like spinach, arugula, or kale can help regulate glucose spikes.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats to your meal, such as avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil. Fats can slow digestion and contribute to a steadier rise in blood sugar.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the zaatar manakeesh. Consider sharing the dish or saving half for another meal to prevent excessive carb intake at once.

Hydrate

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help maintain blood sugar balance.

Include a Low-Sugar Beverage

Opt for a beverage that’s low in sugar, such as unsweetened herbal tea or water with a splash of lemon, instead of sugary drinks.

Timing

Make sure to consume your meal at a regular time to align with your body’s natural insulin cycle and avoid erratic spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. This can aid in glucose metabolism and help reduce spikes.
