    Meal Sequencing

    Eating vegetables and protein before carbohydrate blunts the glucose spike from the same meal.

    Meal Sequencing — Nutrition

    Randomised crossover studies show that consuming fiber and protein first, with starch last, reduces post-meal glucose excursions by 30–50% and lowers insulin response — with no change to the food itself. The mechanism is slower gastric emptying and increased GLP-1 release. It is one of the few interventions that improves traces immediately, and it compounds with a 10–15 minute post-meal walk.
