How to consume Subway without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain or Multigrain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread when ordering your sandwich. This type of bread releases energy more slowly compared to white bread.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Load up on fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, and bell peppers. They help slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Include Lean Proteins

Choose lean protein options such as turkey, chicken, or tuna. Proteins can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Avoid Sugary Sauces and Dressings

Skip sugary sauces like sweet onion or honey mustard. Instead, go for mustard or vinegar-based dressings.

Eat Smaller Portions

Consider eating half your sandwich now and save the other half for later to prevent a large spike.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of olive oil. Fats can help slow down sugar absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal to aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Chew Thoroughly and Eat Slowly

Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can help your body better manage glucose levels.

Pair with a Side Salad

If you want a side dish, choose a salad with a light dressing instead of chips or cookies to keep your meal balanced.

Exercise After Eating

A short walk or light exercise after eating can help your body use glucose more effectively, reducing spikes.
