How to consume Subway without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Bread

Opt for whole grain or multigrain bread instead of white bread to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Increase Protein Intake

Add lean proteins such as turkey, chicken breast, or roast beef to your sandwich, which can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of olive oil to your sandwich to enhance satiety and stabilize blood sugar.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Load up on low-starch vegetables like spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, and bell peppers to add fiber and help manage blood sugar levels.

Avoid Sugary Sauces

Skip sugary or high-calorie sauces and dressings. Opt for mustard or a sprinkle of vinegar instead.

Control Portion Size

Consider ordering a half-sandwich or opting for a smaller size to manage portion control and reduce carbohydrate intake.

Drink Water

Choose water or unsweetened beverages over sugary drinks to prevent additional sugar spikes.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat and savor each bite, which can help with portion control and better digestion.

Pair with a Salad

If you're still hungry, pair your sandwich with a salad topped with lean protein and a light dressing to add volume to your meal without spiking blood sugar.

Plan for Post-Meal Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels more quickly.
