How to consume sandwich spread, tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Opt for Whole Grain Bread

Choose whole grain or whole wheat bread for your sandwich. These options contain more fiber, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Select a Healthier Spread

Use a spread that is lower in sugar and fat. Consider options like hummus or avocado, which provide healthy fats and fiber.

Monitor Portion Size

Keep an eye on the quantity of sandwich spread you use to avoid excessive sugar and calorie intake.

Use Natural Sweeteners

Substitute sugar in your tea with natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit, which don’t cause spikes in blood sugar levels.

Switch to Plant-Based Milk

Consider non-dairy milk options such as almond or soy milk, which often contain less sugar and carbohydrates than traditional dairy milk.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of lean protein into your sandwich, such as turkey or chicken breast, to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Vegetables

Add fiber-rich vegetables like lettuce, tomatoes, or cucumbers to your sandwich to enhance its nutritional profile and aid in stabilizing blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water with your meal to help with digestion and to potentially reduce the spike in glucose levels.

Try Herbal Tea

Choose herbal or green tea instead of black tea to reduce caffeine and potential sugar content, while still enjoying a warm beverage.

Practice Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your meal, which can help with digestion and prevent overeating.
