How to consume Pizza With Beans And Vegetables without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the pizza by having smaller slices. This will help limit the overall carbohydrate intake in one sitting.

Balanced Toppings

Ensure your pizza is topped with plenty of vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms, which can help slow down digestion and reduce the impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate lean protein sources such as grilled chicken or tofu on your pizza. Protein can help slow carbohydrate absorption and reduce glucose spikes.

Fiber-Rich Side Salad

Pair your pizza with a side salad containing leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The additional fiber can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of flaxseeds on your pizza or salad. Healthy fats can further decrease the rate at which your body processes carbohydrates.

Drink Water

Consume plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and better manage blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in a light walk or other moderate physical activity after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by chewing slowly and savoring each bite. This can help you feel satisfied with less food and improve digestion.

Monitor Timing

Try to have your pizza meal earlier in the day when your body is more insulin-sensitive, rather than late at night.

Follow-up Snack

If needed, have a small, low-carb snack like a handful of nuts or a piece of cheese a couple of hours after your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
