How to consume korean kimchi jjigae without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of kimchi jjigae to minimize the impact on your blood glucose levels.
Add Protein
Incorporate lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of sesame seeds to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Pair with Low-Carb Vegetables
Serve kimchi jjigae with a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale, which can help moderate your glucose response.
Choose Whole Grains
If you’re having rice on the side, opt for a smaller portion of brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help manage sugar levels.
Eat Mindfully
Slow down your eating pace, savoring each bite, which can help in better digestion and blood sugar management.
Monitor and Adjust
Track your body's response to the meal and make adjustments to the ingredients or portion sizes as needed for future meals.
Regular Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, like walking, after meals to help lower post-meal glucose spikes.
