Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes like lentils and chickpeas to your meal.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Add Vegetables

Mix in non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your brown rice to increase fiber content and reduce the glucose spike.

Eat Whole Foods

Choose Beans and Legumes

Complement your brown rice with beans like black beans or kidney beans that are lower in causing blood sugar spikes.
