How to consume Chicken Or Turkey And Rice (Mixture) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the rice in your meal. This can help minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Swap Rice

Consider replacing some or all of the rice with a lower-impact alternative like quinoa or barley. Both can provide a similar texture with less effect on glucose levels.

Add Fiber

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

Protein Balance

Ensure that the chicken or turkey portion is sufficient to balance the meal. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar by slowing down carbohydrate absorption.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado or a drizzle of olive oil. Fats can help slow the digestive process and reduce spikes.

Timing

Consider eating the rice portion after the protein and vegetables. Starting with protein and fiber can moderate the effect of the carbohydrates on blood glucose.

Preparation Method

Cook rice ahead of time and cool it in the refrigerator before eating. This process can increase the resistant starch content, reducing its impact on blood sugar.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal and day. Proper hydration can aid digestion and help maintain stable glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. Exercise can help lower glucose levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar responses to different meals and adjust the composition and timing of your meals accordingly to find what works best for your body.
