How to consume plain fried tofu without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale with your meal. These can help slow down digestion and reduce the glucose spike.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a source of healthy fats, such as avocado or a small handful of nuts, to your meal. This can help moderate the absorption of sugars.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or fish, to balance your meal and prevent a rapid rise in glucose levels.

Use Whole Grains

If you’re adding grains, opt for whole grains like quinoa or brown rice, which are digested more slowly.

Incorporate Legumes

Consider adding beans or lentils to your meal. These are not only high in protein and fiber but also help stabilize blood sugar.

Drink Water

Have a glass of water before your meal to help with digestion and potentially reduce the glucose spike.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help with glucose regulation.

Mind Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion size of the tofu and the overall meal to avoid consuming too many carbohydrates at once.

Add Vinegar

Consider using a vinegar-based dressing or a splash of vinegar in your meal, as this can help lower blood sugar spikes.

Slow Down Eating

Take your time to eat slowly and chew thoroughly, which can aid in better digestion and glucose management.
