How to consume Fish with rice without glucose spikes
Add a Generous Serving of Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers with your meal. These can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a small portion of healthy fats such as avocado or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. They can help reduce the glucose spike by slowing digestion.
Choose Brown or Wild Rice
Opt for brown or wild rice instead of white rice, which have a gentler impact on blood sugar levels.
Consider Quinoa
Instead of rice, you might try quinoa as a base for your fish dish. It provides protein and fiber, which can help modulate glucose response.
Include Protein-Rich Sides
Pair your meal with a protein-rich side like boiled lentils or chickpeas. Proteins can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Control Portion Sizes
Reduce the portion of rice and increase the portion of fish and vegetables to maintain a balanced meal.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and reduce blood sugar spikes.
Add a Slice of Lemon
Squeeze lemon juice over your dish; the acidity can help slow the digestion of carbohydrates.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to chew thoroughly and enjoy your meal, which can help in moderating the body's glucose response.
Include Cinnamon
Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on your dish or add it to a side drink. It has properties that can aid in regulating blood sugar levels.
