How to consume tamale with meat without glucose spikes
Pair with High-Fiber Foods
Add side dishes like black beans, lentils, or a mixed green salad to your meal. The fiber content can slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small handful of nuts. These fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help your body process carbohydrates more efficiently.
Add a Vinegar Dressing
Use a vinaigrette made with apple cider vinegar or balsamic vinegar on your salad. Vinegar can help improve insulin sensitivity.
Practice Portion Control
Consider eating a smaller portion of tamale and balance it with more non-starchy vegetables on your plate.
Eat Protein-Rich Foods
Include a side of grilled chicken, fish, or tofu. Protein can slow down the digestion of carbohydrates and help stabilize blood sugar.
Opt for Less Processed Tamales
If possible, choose tamales made with whole-grain masa and less added sugar to reduce the impact on blood sugar.
Engage in Light Physical Activity
Take a short walk after your meal to help your muscles use some of the glucose from your bloodstream.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat your meal at a consistent time each day to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and savor each bite. This practice can help you recognize when you are full and prevent overeating.
