How to consume brown rice, english indian rasam soup without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of brown rice to limit the carbohydrate intake. You can start by halving your usual portion and adjust based on your glucose response.
Add High-Fiber Foods
Incorporate vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers into your meal. These vegetables can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Protein
Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils, to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado slices, a handful of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal, which can help moderate glucose spikes.
Opt for Whole Grains
If brown rice is unavoidable, consider mixing it with barley or quinoa, which have a more beneficial impact on blood sugar levels.
Pre-Meal Hydration
Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help with the overall digestion and metabolism of carbohydrates.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew thoroughly and eat slowly. This practice can aid in better digestion and a slower absorption rate of carbohydrates.
Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice
Incorporating a splash of vinegar or lemon juice in your meal can help reduce the spike in blood sugar levels after eating.
Physical Activity
Engage in a short walk or light exercise after your meal. Physical activity can help your body use glucose more efficiently.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar levels after meals and adjust your food choices and portion sizes accordingly.
