How to consume pastry filled with potatoes and peas (fried), tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the pastry and consider sharing it or eating only half. Smaller portions can help minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a side of leafy green salad or steamed non-starchy vegetables with your meal. Foods high in fiber can slow down the absorption of sugar.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, choose a pastry made from whole-grain flour. Whole grains digest more slowly than refined grains, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.

Balance with Protein

Include a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg alongside your meal to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats like avocado slices or a handful of nuts to your meal. Healthy fats can help slow down digestion and the release of sugar into your bloodstream.

Adjust the Beverage

Try reducing the sugar in your tea or replace it with a natural sweetener alternative. Consider using a smaller amount of milk or switching to a milk alternative with lower carbohydrate content.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to help with the digestion process and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity and promoting glucose uptake by your muscles.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to hunger and fullness cues. This can prevent overeating, which can contribute to larger glucose spikes.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after trying these strategies and adjust your approach as needed to find what works best for you.
