How to consume California Rolls, Salmon Sushi, Tuna Sushi without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of California Rolls, Salmon Sushi, and Tuna Sushi to minimize glucose spikes. Smaller portions will lead to less carbohydrate intake.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate more non-starchy vegetables like cucumber, avocado, or seaweed salad with your meal. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Pairing

Include additional sources of protein such as edamame or tofu. Protein can help manage glucose levels by slowing digestion.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Pair your sushi with fiber-rich foods like a small bowl of miso soup or a side salad with leafy greens. This can help reduce the impact on your glucose levels.

Choose Brown Rice

If possible, opt for sushi made with brown rice instead of white rice. Brown rice digests slower, which may help prevent a spike.

Avoid Sugary Sauces

Limit or avoid sauces like eel sauce or teriyaki sauce that can add extra sugars and carbohydrates to your meal.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal, which can help regulate digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food. This can help give your body time to process and stabilize glucose levels more effectively.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk after your meal. Physical activity can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently, reducing blood sugar spikes.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how your body responds to different types and amounts of sushi. Adjust your portions and combinations accordingly to find the balance that works best for you.
