How to consume Wheat Chicken Shawarma without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Consider reducing the portion size of the shawarma. Smaller portions can help moderate the blood sugar response.

Add Fiber

Incorporate a side of non-starchy vegetables, such as a green salad or steamed broccoli. The additional fiber can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats, like avocado or a small serving of nuts, to your meal. These can help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, choose whole-grain wraps or bread instead of refined options for your shawarma. Whole grains tend to have a slower impact on blood sugar.

Balanced Meals

Ensure your meal includes a balance of protein, fats, and carbohydrates. Eating a balanced meal can prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. Exercise can help lower blood glucose levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues. This can prevent overeating and help regulate your blood sugar levels.

Watch Additives

Be mindful of sauces and dressings that may contain added sugars. Opt for lighter options or use them sparingly.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.
