How to consume japanese bento box without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of high-carb foods like rice. Opt for a smaller serving to reduce overall carbohydrate intake.

Choose Brown or Mixed Rice

If possible, substitute white rice with brown rice or a mix that includes barley or other grains, which have a slower rate of absorption.

Increase Protein Intake

Incorporate more protein-rich foods like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add More Vegetables

Include a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or seaweed salad. These are low in carbohydrates and can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats, such as avocado or a handful of nuts like almonds. These can help slow digestion and reduce spikes.

Eat Mindfully

Chew your food thoroughly and take your time eating. This can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Balance with a Side Salad

Pair your meal with a side salad dressed with olive oil and vinegar, which can help in moderating blood sugar response.

Walk After Eating

Take a short walk after your meal. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity.

Monitor and Adjust

Pay attention to how your body responds to different components of the bento box and adjust future meals accordingly.
