How to consume mango, mixed salad greens without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the portion size of mango you consume. A smaller portion will reduce the overall sugar intake, helping to moderate any potential glucose spike.
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a handful of nuts. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars, leading to a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocado or a drizzle of olive oil in your salad. These fats can further slow digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Fiber-Rich Foods
Mix high-fiber vegetables such as cucumbers, bell peppers, or broccoli into your salad. Fiber slows down the digestion process and can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar, like apple cider or balsamic, to your salad dressing. Vinegar can have a stabilizing effect on blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If you want to add grains to your meal, opt for those that are less processed, like quinoa or barley. These grains are digested more slowly, which can help keep glucose levels steady.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body regulate blood sugar levels more effectively.
Be Mindful of Timing
Spread out your consumption of fruit throughout the day instead of consuming a large portion all at once. This can help prevent large spikes in blood sugar.
Chew Thoroughly
Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. Slower eating can aid digestion and help your body better manage glucose levels.
Monitor Blood Glucose
Keep track of your blood glucose levels before and after meals to better understand how different food combinations affect you, allowing you to make more informed dietary choices.
