How to consume Vietnamese Restaurant - Vegetarian Pho (Medium) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Consider reducing the portion size of the pho. Eating smaller quantities can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Add More Vegetables

Increase the amount of non-starchy vegetables in your pho, such as broccoli, spinach, and bell peppers. These are high in fiber and can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include a Protein Source

Adding a protein-rich food, like tofu or tempeh, can help stabilize your blood sugar by slowing the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grain Options

If available, opt for whole grain or brown rice noodles instead of traditional white rice noodles to increase fiber intake.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Top your pho with healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a sprinkle of sesame seeds, to enhance satiety and slow carbohydrate absorption.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time to chew your food thoroughly, which can aid in digestion and allow your body to process carbohydrates more gradually.

Balance with a Low-Carb Snack

Before or after your meal, enjoy a small snack like a handful of almonds or an apple with peanut butter to provide additional fiber and healthy fats.

Avoid Sugary Add-ons

Be cautious with added sauces or toppings that may contain sugar, such as hoisin sauce or sweet chili sauce.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body metabolize glucose more efficiently.
