💉 Suggested Bolus

Consider pre-bolusing or using a dual-wave bolus to manage the slower digestion of fats and proteins along with the rapid absorption of carbs.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Veg)

• Grilled zucchini slices – Adds fiber and nutrients with minimal carbs.
• Avocado salad – Healthy fats in avocado help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Non Veg)

• Grilled chicken breast – Provides additional protein without adding carbs, supporting blood sugar control.
• Smoked salmon – Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and protein, helps in managing blood sugar levels.

🥄 Smart Substitutes

• Almond flour sausage rolls – Lower in carbs and higher in healthy fats, which can help manage blood sugar levels.
• Cauliflower crust sausage rolls – Significantly reduces carb content and adds vegetable nutrients.
• Cheese-wrapped sausages – Eliminates the carb-heavy pastry and adds protein and fat for better blood sugar stability.

⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as the fat and protein digest slowly.
• 30–60 min: Gradual rise in blood sugar if any, depending on the amount and type of carbs in the sausage roll.
• 2–3 hr: Blood sugar levels should remain more stable compared to high-carb alternatives.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Opt for a sausage without the pastry or choose a low-carb alternative wrap.
