How to consume Pizza without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of pizza you consume in one sitting. Consider having one or two slices instead of more.

Opt for Whole Grain Crust

Choose pizza options made with whole grain or whole wheat crust to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Add Vegetables

Top your pizza with a variety of vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, mushrooms, and onions. These not only add nutrients but also help slow down glucose release.

Include a Protein Source

Pair your pizza with a side of grilled chicken, turkey, or beans to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Consider adding avocado slices or a sprinkle of nuts as a topping to enhance satiety and reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Choose a Tomato-Based Sauce

Opt for simple tomato sauces instead of creamy or sugary sauces to keep sugar content lower.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in light physical activity like a walk or gentle exercise after your meal to help manage blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid digestion and help control appetite.

Balance with a Side Salad

Have a side salad with a vinaigrette dressing as a starter. The fiber can help moderate the absorption rate of carbohydrates.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite to give your body time to signal when it’s full, reducing the likelihood of overeating.
