How to consume Chinese food without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the amount of rice and noodles you consume. Opt for smaller servings to help manage blood sugar levels.
Choose Brown Rice or Quinoa
If available, choose brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice. They are digested more slowly, which can help prevent spikes.
Include Protein
Add lean proteins like chicken, tofu, or shrimp to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for Vegetable Dishes
Include plenty of non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, bok choy, bell peppers, and snow peas. These can help slow digestion.
Limit Sauces
Many sauces used in Chinese food contain sugar and starch. Ask for sauces on the side and use them sparingly.
Drink Water
Avoid sugary drinks and opt for water or unsweetened tea to accompany your meal.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat, which can help with portion control and allow your body to better regulate blood sugar levels.
Add Vinegar
Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your meal. It may help moderate blood sugar levels after eating.
Start with a Salad
Begin your meal with a salad to fill up on fiber and potentially reduce the impact of higher-carb dishes.
Monitor Carbohydrate Intake
Keep track of your total carbohydrate intake throughout the meal to ensure it remains within a reasonable range for your dietary needs.
