How to consume Mexican Rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the Mexican rice to manage your blood sugar levels better.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair the rice with fiber-rich vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of healthy fats such as avocado or nuts to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Combine with Protein

Add a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, fish, or tofu to help keep your glucose levels steady.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, use brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice to lower the impact on your blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and help regulate your blood sugar response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help your body process the carbohydrates more efficiently.

Include Vinegar

Adding a small amount of vinegar-based salsa or dressing can help moderate your blood sugar response.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in a light walk or physical activity after your meal to help manage your blood sugar levels.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating and adjust your approach as needed to find what works best for you.
