Limit your pasta serving size to a smaller portion, such as one cup of cooked pasta, to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Opt for whole grain or whole wheat pasta, which are digested more slowly and can result in a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.

Add a source of protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or shrimp, to your pasta dish. This can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, or a sprinkle of nuts like almonds or walnuts. These can help moderate the rise in blood glucose.

Mix in fiber-rich vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your pasta. Fiber can slow digestion and help prevent spikes.

Try pasta made from lentils, chickpeas, or other legumes, which may have a lesser impact on blood sugar.

Ensure your entire meal is balanced with protein, healthy fats, and vegetables to slow down digestion and absorption.

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Avoid consuming pasta late at night or when you are less active, as physical activity helps regulate blood sugar.

Eating slowly and savoring each bite can help you recognize fullness sooner and prevent overeating, which can lead to spikes in blood sugar.
