How to consume Cheese Risotto without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the cheese risotto to limit the carbohydrate intake, as smaller amounts can help moderate the spike.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers into your risotto. These vegetables can add fiber and nutrients that help slow down glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, use brown rice or barley instead of white rice for your risotto. These options are usually digested slowly and can help in reducing glucose spikes.

Incorporate Lean Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as chicken breast or tofu. Protein can help slow digestion and reduce the impact of carbohydrates on your blood sugar.

Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats, like avocado or nuts, in your meal. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels and make you feel more satiated.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated aids digestion and can help in managing blood glucose levels.

Herbs and Spices

Use herbs and spices like cinnamon or turmeric in your risotto. Some spices are known to have properties that support blood sugar regulation.

Balanced Meal

Pair your risotto with a balanced salad or a side dish containing fibers and proteins to create a more balanced meal that helps control glucose response.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and regulate blood sugar more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after eating. Exercise can help your muscles use glucose more effectively, thereby reducing blood sugar spikes.
