How to consume Fried Rice, Kung Pao Chicken without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of fried rice and Kung Pao chicken you consume. Smaller portions can help manage the spike in glucose levels.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli into your meal. These vegetables can help moderate the absorption of glucose.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken breast or tofu, to help slow down digestion and glucose absorption.

Opt for Brown Rice

Substitute white rice with brown rice to increase fiber content, which can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include a side salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes to add more fiber to your meal, which can help control glucose spikes.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a sprinkle of nuts, to your meal to aid in controlling glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid in digestion and dilute sugar levels in your bloodstream.

Avoid Sugary Sauces

Reduce or eliminate the use of high-sugar sauces in your Kung Pao chicken to minimize additional sugar intake.

Eat Slowly

Take your time eating and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body more time to process the food, minimizing glucose spikes.

Consider a Post-Meal Walk

Engage in light physical activity, like a 15-20 minute walk after your meal, to help lower blood glucose levels through increased metabolism.
