How to consume chicken or turkey teriyaki (chicken or turkey with soy based sauce) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of teriyaki chicken or turkey you consume. Smaller portions will reduce the amount of sugar and carbohydrates entering your system at once.

Choose Brown Rice

If you're eating teriyaki with rice, opt for brown rice instead of white rice. It has a slower digestion rate, which can help in managing glucose levels.

Add Vegetables

Include plenty of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, bell peppers, and spinach. These can help to slow down the absorption of glucose into your bloodstream.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you're pairing the dish with a grain, choose whole grain options such as quinoa or barley as a side.

Use Less Sauce

Reduce the amount of teriyaki sauce used in the dish, as it often contains added sugars. Consider making your own sauce with reduced sugar or using a low-sugar alternative.

Incorporate Protein and Healthy Fats

Add more protein and healthy fats to your meal, such as tofu, nuts, or avocado, to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help your body process the meal more efficiently, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body use up some of the glucose in your bloodstream.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, ensuring you chew thoroughly. This can aid digestion and help prevent spikes.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after consuming teriyaki dishes and adjust your approach based on what you observe about your body's response.
