How to consume korean bibimbap without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of bibimbap to prevent large spikes in blood sugar. Smaller portions help in managing glucose levels more effectively.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more high-fiber vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or kale to your bibimbap. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of sugars.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice. These alternatives have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Include Protein and Healthy Fats

Incorporate lean proteins such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a small amount of beef. Add healthy fats like a boiled egg or a drizzle of sesame oil to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Be Mindful of Sauces

Use less sauce or make your own with reduced sugar and sodium. Go for lighter options like garlic or ginger-based sauces.

Add Fermented Foods

Include kimchi or other fermented vegetables in your bibimbap. Fermented foods can aid in digestion and improve gut health, which can help in better glucose management.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and with your meal. Hydration can assist in regulating blood sugar levels.

Monitor Carbohydrate Sources

Balance your meal by including a variety of low-impact carbohydrate sources and avoid loading up on rice alone.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time to chew and eat slowly. This practice can improve digestion and help in controlling post-meal blood sugar spikes.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body manage glucose levels more efficiently.
