How to consume Vegetarian Stew, White Rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of white rice in your meal. This can lower the overall impact on your blood glucose levels.

Whole Grains

Substitute white rice with brown rice or quinoa. These options are less likely to cause spikes in glucose levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate more fibrous vegetables into your vegetarian stew, such as broccoli, spinach, or kale. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Addition

Include a protein source like tofu, tempeh, or legumes in your stew. Protein can help in moderating blood sugar spikes.

Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats, such as avocado, nuts, or seeds, to your meal. Fats can help slow the digestion process and prevent spikes.

Vinegar Dressing

Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your stew or as a side dressing. Vinegar has properties that can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon on your stew. Some studies suggest that cinnamon can help in controlling blood sugar levels.

Cooking Techniques

Cook rice al dente instead of overcooking it. This can help reduce its impact on blood sugar levels.

Balanced Meal

Ensure that your meal is balanced with a good mix of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to prevent sudden spikes.

Pre-meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, before eating. This can help in better glucose management after meals.
