💉 Suggested Bolus

If insulin administration is required, consider a smaller bolus due to the low carb content, or adjust timing to account for slower digestion due to fat content.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Veg)

• Celery sticks – High in fiber, helping to regulate digestion and blood sugar levels.
• Cucumber slices – Low in carbs and calories, providing hydration and a crunchy texture.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Non Veg)

• Grilled chicken strips – High in protein, supporting muscle maintenance and stable blood glucose levels.
• Smoked salmon – Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can improve heart health without impacting blood sugar.

🥄 Smart Substitutes

• Sour cream – Lower in carbs and can be mixed with herbs for a similar texture and flavor.
• Cottage cheese – Higher in protein, which can help with satiety and has minimal impact on blood sugar levels.

⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as Greek yogurt dip is low in carbohydrates.
• 30–60 min: Stable blood sugar levels due to low carb content and presence of protein and fat.
• 2–3 hr: Continued stable blood sugar, with slow digestion contributing to prolonged satiety.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Ensure the dip is made with full-fat Greek yogurt and avoid adding any high-carb ingredients like sweeteners or fruits. Incorporating herbs and spices can enhance flavor without adding carbs.
