How to consume Kung Pao Chicken without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of Kung Pao Chicken to help manage the carbohydrate intake in one sitting.

Balanced Meal

Add more non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, bell peppers, or spinach to your meal to increase fiber intake, which can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken breast or tofu to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts) to increase satiety and slow glucose absorption.

Whole Grains

Swap white rice for whole grains such as quinoa or barley that provide more fiber and nutrients.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after meals to help lower blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, savoring each bite, which can prevent overeating and improve digestion.

Meal Timing

Consider having smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day rather than a few large meals to help maintain more stable blood sugar levels.

Herbal Teas

Enjoy a cup of unsweetened herbal tea like chamomile or peppermint after your meal to aid digestion and promote relaxation.
