How to consume Nachos With Beans And Cheese without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of nachos you consume. Smaller portions will result in a smaller glucose response.

Add Protein

Incorporate lean proteins such as grilled chicken or turkey slices to your nachos. Protein helps slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats like avocado or a sprinkle of nuts. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grain Chips

Opt for nacho chips made from whole grains as they are digested more slowly.

Add Vegetables

Enhance your nachos with low-carb vegetables like bell peppers, tomatoes, or leafy greens to add fiber and nutrients.

Use Greek Yogurt

Substitute sour cream with plain Greek yogurt for a lower-carb, high-protein topping.

Monitor Cheese Quantity

Be mindful of the amount of cheese used, opting for a moderate amount to avoid excess fat and calories.

Hydrate Wisely

Drink water or a no-sugar-added beverage alongside your nachos to help with digestion.

Eat Slowly

Take your time eating to allow your body to process the food better and prevent rapid spikes in glucose.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
