How to consume Peanut Butter, Whole Wheat Bread (Commercial) without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken or turkey slices. Protein helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to more stable blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Consider adding healthy fats like avocado slices or a small handful of nuts. These fats can help slow digestion and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables such as cucumber, spinach, or bell peppers. The fiber content in these vegetables can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Choose Natural Peanut Butter

Opt for natural peanut butter without added sugars or hydrogenated oils. Check the ingredient list to ensure it's made with just peanuts and possibly a small amount of salt.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes of peanut butter and whole wheat bread. Reducing portion sizes can help limit carbohydrate intake and manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and promote satiety, which can reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Physical Activity

Incorporate light physical activity, such as a short walk after your meal. This can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Timing of Meals

Consider spacing out your carbohydrate intake throughout the day rather than consuming large amounts in one sitting to prevent spikes.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by chewing slowly and savoring each bite. This can improve digestion and prevent overeating.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels and adjust your meal components based on how your body responds. This can help you identify patterns and make informed dietary choices.
