How to consume cooked rice, english indian rasam soup without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of cooked rice you consume in a single meal. A smaller portion will have a lesser impact on your blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice or other whole grains like quinoa or barley instead of white rice as they are absorbed more slowly.

Combine with Protein and Healthy Fats

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, fish, or tofu, and healthy fats like avocados or nuts with your meal. This combination helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers with your meal. Fiber in these vegetables can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Drink Water

Ensure you drink sufficient water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help with digestion and may reduce the intensity of glucose spikes.

Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal. The acidity can help slow down the rate at which your stomach empties and delay carbohydrate absorption.

Pre-Meal Snack

Have a small, balanced snack 30 minutes before your meal, such as a handful of almonds or a slice of cheese, to stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a brisk walk for 15-20 minutes after eating. Physical movement helps your muscles use up the glucose more effectively.

Cook Rice Properly

Cook rice with a little extra water and let it cool down to room temperature before eating. Cooling can help form resistant starch, which is less digestible and thus lowers glucose spikes.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. This can help with better digestion and give your body more time to manage blood sugar levels efficiently.
