How to consume nasi lemak without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the nasi lemak to limit carbohydrate intake and help manage blood sugar levels.

Add More Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like cucumber slices, tomatoes, or a side salad. These can help slow down glucose absorption.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or boiled eggs to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Brown Rice

Substitute white rice with brown rice or basmati rice. These options have a slower release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small amount of nuts. Fats can help slow down digestion and prevent spikes in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and slow down the absorption of sugars.

Engage in Physical Activity

Go for a short walk after eating to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Ingredients

Be mindful of the sambal and coconut milk components as they can contain added sugars. Opt for homemade versions with reduced sugar or use them sparingly.

Eat Mindfully

Chew slowly and savor each bite to give your body time to register fullness and better manage glucose levels.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to observe how changes in your diet affect your glucose spikes.
