How to consume Tuna Sushi without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit your intake of sushi rice, as it is the primary source of carbohydrates in sushi. Consider having sashimi (just the fish) alongside a smaller portion of sushi rolls.

Add Fiber

Pair your tuna sushi with a side of vegetables that are high in fiber, such as a salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, or avocado slices. The fiber can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include foods like avocado or a small serving of nuts, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing the digestion process.

Choose Brown Rice Sushi

If available, opt for sushi made with brown rice instead of white rice. Brown rice has more fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Start with a Soup or Salad

Begin your meal with a miso soup or a seaweed salad. These lower-calorie options can fill you up slightly and reduce the amount of sushi you consume later.

Stay Hydrated

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

Mindful Eating

Eat your sushi slowly and chew thoroughly. This can help improve digestion and give your body time to signal when it is full, preventing overeating.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity after your meal, such as a brisk walk. This can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently, reducing spikes in blood sugar.
