How to consume Pepperoni Pizza (Frozen, Cooked) without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Add a side of mixed greens or a salad with vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli to increase fiber intake, which can help slow down glucose absorption.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small portion of nuts such as almonds or walnuts into your meal. The healthy fats can help moderate the rise in blood sugar.

Incorporate Lean Proteins

Include a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or turkey slices, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water or herbal tea with your meal. Proper hydration can aid digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole-Grain Alternatives

If possible, opt for a whole-grain crust or a pizza variant with whole grains to reduce the rate at which carbohydrates are absorbed.

Practice Portion Control

Limit the amount of pizza consumed in one sitting to help control the total intake of carbohydrates and calories.

Eat Slowly

Take your time while eating to give your body a chance to process the food more gradually, which can help prevent sharp spikes in blood sugar.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to help utilize glucose more effectively.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Regularly check your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how your body responds and adjust your strategies as necessary.

Plan Meals Ahead

Consider planning your meals around your pizza intake, ensuring that earlier or later meals are low in carbohydrates to balance your overall consumption.
