How to consume portuguese mushroom risotto without glucose spikes

Incorporate Fiber

Add more non-starchy vegetables like spinach or kale to your risotto. These vegetables can help slow the digestion process and moderate glucose spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Consider adding a source of healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil, which can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Increase Protein Intake

Pair your meal with a lean protein like grilled chicken or tofu to help balance the meal and reduce glucose spikes.

Portion Control

Be mindful of portion sizes by serving a smaller amount of risotto and filling the rest of your plate with salad or steamed vegetables.

Vinegar Use

Adding a splash of vinegar, such as balsamic or apple cider vinegar, can help moderate blood sugar levels after meals.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help your body process the meal more efficiently.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize glucose more effectively.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, make the risotto with a whole grain or brown rice for added fiber and slower digestion.

Snack Wisely

If you anticipate a spike, consider having a small, balanced snack like a handful of almonds before eating the risotto to help stabilize blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Take your time eating and savor each bite to help regulate your digestive process and give your body time to signal when it's full.
