How to consume sweet and sour chicken or turkey without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of sweet and sour chicken or turkey to reduce overall carbohydrate intake.

Balanced Meal

Pair the sweet and sour dish with high-fiber vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Protein Addition

Include a lean protein source such as grilled chicken breast, tofu, or fish to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices or a small handful of nuts (almonds, walnuts) to your meal. This can help slow down digestion and regulate blood sugar levels.

Whole Grains

If you’re eating rice with the dish, opt for whole grain or brown rice instead of white rice to reduce the glucose spike.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal, which may help with digestion and blood sugar management.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

Regular Meal Times

Maintain consistent meal times to help regulate your body's insulin response.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food, which may help in moderating glucose spikes.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your body's response and make adjustments as needed. This can help you understand what works best for your individual needs.
