💉 Suggested Bolus

Consider using a dual-wave or extended bolus if consuming, to manage the rapid rise and longer digestion period.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Veg)

• Avocado salad – High in fiber and healthy fats, aiding in slower digestion and stable blood glucose levels.
• Zucchini noodles with pesto – Low in carbohydrates and rich in nutrients, helping to maintain steady blood sugar.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Non Veg)

• Grilled chicken with asparagus – Protein helps moderate blood sugar levels and asparagus is low in carbs.
• Salmon with steamed broccoli – Omega-3 fatty acids in salmon improve insulin sensitivity, and broccoli is a low-carb vegetable.

🥄 Smart Substitutes

• Almond flour cookies – Lower in carbs and higher in healthy fats, which can help manage blood sugar levels.
• Coconut flakes – Provide a crunchy, sweet taste with minimal impact on blood sugar.
• Dark chocolate (70% or higher) – Contains antioxidants and can satisfy sweet cravings with less sugar.

⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as low-carb substitutes are used.
• 30–60 min: Stable blood sugar due to reduced carb intake.
• 2–3 hr: Continued blood sugar control without significant spikes.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Limit intake and pair with a source of protein or healthy fats to slow glucose absorption.
