How to consume roasted chickpeas without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the serving size of roasted chickpeas to limit the glucose spike. Start with a small portion and see how your body responds.
Combine with Protein
Pair roasted chickpeas with a protein source like grilled chicken, turkey slices, or tofu. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats such as avocado slices, nuts, or seeds with your meal. Fat can help moderate the digestion process and reduce spikes.
Incorporate Fibrous Vegetables
Consume roasted chickpeas alongside non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli. The fiber can aid in stabilizing blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after your meal. Hydration can aid in digestion and help manage glucose levels.
Use Vinegar
Add a tablespoon of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your meal or in a salad dressing. Vinegar can help reduce the rate at which your blood sugar rises.
Prepare with Herbs and Spices
Flavor your chickpeas with herbs and spices like cinnamon, turmeric, or garlic instead of sugar-laden sauces.
Opt for Homemade Preparation
Make roasted chickpeas at home to control added sugars and oils, and choose healthier preparation methods.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body better manage blood sugar levels.
Monitor Timing
Avoid consuming large quantities of roasted chickpeas late in the day or as a late-night snack when your metabolism typically slows down.
