How to consume Brown Rice, Chicken Curry without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the brown rice. Smaller portions can help minimize the spike in glucose levels after meals.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Incorporate a generous serving of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or broccoli to your meal. These vegetables can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grains

If available, opt for even lower-impact grains like quinoa or barley as an alternative to brown rice. These grains are less likely to cause significant glucose spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats, such as avocado or nuts, to your meal. Healthy fats can help slow the digestion process, preventing rapid rises in blood sugar.

Combine with Protein

Ensure your meal includes a good balance of protein. While you already have chicken, consider adding a small portion of legumes or lentils for additional protein.

Opt for Homemade Sauces

If your chicken curry is prepared with a store-bought sauce, consider making your own using fresh ingredients like tomatoes and spices. This can reduce added sugars and offer more fiber.

Cook Rice Al Dente

Slightly undercook your rice to increase its resistant starch content, which can help mitigate glucose spikes.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can assist in proper digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to process the carbohydrates more effectively.

Regular Physical Activity

Incorporate a walk or light exercise after meals. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity.
