At dinner, we should prioritize eating foods containing protein first. Protein and fat are digested more slowly than carbohydrates.
Eating protein first can slow down gastric emptying, reduce the risk of glucose entering the blood rapidly, reduce blood sugar fluctuations, and reduce the burden of insulin secretion.
Protein helps increase feelings of fullness, keeping you from overeating carbohydrates, and also helps control blood sugar levels.

Eat meat, fish, eggs, tofu, beans first. Then eat green leafy vegetables, broccoli, vegetables containing fiber. Next eat low glycemic carbs.

Protein makes up about 25-30% of dinner, vegetables make up 50%, and carbohydrates are kept to 20-25%.
