How to consume Rice With Vegetables without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the rice in your meal. Smaller portions will result in a smaller glucose spike.

Add Protein

Include a source of lean protein like chicken, tofu, or beans in your meal. Protein helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, stabilizing your glucose levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats, such as avocado, nuts, or seeds, to your meal. These can help slow digestion and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Choose Whole Grains

Instead of white rice, opt for whole grains like quinoa or barley, which have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Eat More Vegetables

Increase the proportion of non-starchy vegetables in your meal. Vegetables like broccoli, spinach, and bell peppers can help moderate the rise in glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal. Proper hydration can help your body manage blood sugar more effectively.

Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Include a splash of vinegar or lemon juice in your meal. The acidity can help lower the blood sugar response.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in light physical activity, like walking, after your meal. This can help your muscles use up some of the sugar in your blood.

Monitor Carb Intake

Be mindful of the total carbohydrate content in your meals throughout the day to prevent spikes.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew your food and eat slowly. This can improve digestion and help your body manage blood sugar levels better.
