How to consume rice, rice with beans without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of rice and beans you consume to help manage glucose spikes.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice or wild rice instead of white rice, as these have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale into your meal to increase fiber content and slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fat, such as avocado, nuts, or seeds, to your meal to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a lean protein source like chicken, tofu, or fish with your rice and beans to help stabilize blood sugar.

Cook Rice Differently

Try cooking rice and then cooling it before eating, as this can increase the resistant starch content, which helps in managing blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as proper hydration can aid in maintaining normal blood sugar levels.

Practice Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and reduce the likelihood of a glucose spike.

Regular Physical Activity

Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine, such as a walk after meals, to help regulate blood sugar.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods and portion sizes affect you personally.
