How to consume mashed potato, meat without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of mashed potatoes to limit the carbohydrate intake.

Balanced Plate

Add non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, or cauliflower to your meal to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Protein Addition

Incorporate more protein sources like chicken or fish to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or olive oil in your meal to help slow digestion.

Sweet Potato Swap

Replace some or all of the mashed potatoes with mashed sweet potatoes or cauliflower for a lower-carb alternative.

Fiber Focus

Add a source of fiber, such as chia seeds or ground flaxseeds, to your mashed potatoes to help slow glucose absorption.

Cooking Methods

Start your meal with vegetables and protein and consume the mashed potatoes last to reduce the spike.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to improve digestion and glucose regulation.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a walk, after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food to aid digestion and give your body time to signal fullness.
