How to consume Spaghetti (With Added Salt, Enriched, Cooked) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of the spaghetti to limit the intake of carbohydrates, which can help moderate any glucose spike.
Add Protein
Incorporate a lean protein source such as grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu to your meal. Protein can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, or nuts to your meal. Fats can slow the absorption of glucose and help reduce spikes in blood sugar.
Eat Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers. Fiber helps slow digestion and can minimize blood sugar increases.
Try Whole-Grain Alternatives
Consider using whole-grain or whole-wheat spaghetti, which may be digested more slowly and have a more gradual impact on blood sugar levels.
Cook Pasta Al Dente
Cook pasta to a firm texture (al dente) rather than soft. This can help reduce the rapid rise in blood sugar.
Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice
Incorporate a splash of vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice to your meal, as the acidity can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and with your meal to aid digestion and help maintain optimal blood glucose levels.
Exercise After Eating
Engage in light physical activity, like a walk, after eating to help your body use glucose more efficiently.
Monitor Meal Timing
Eat regular meals and avoid long gaps between meals to maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.
