How to consume korean kimchi jjigae without glucose spikes

Balance with Protein

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish, to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices or a few nuts to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a side of leafy greens or a small salad with a vinaigrette dressing to increase fiber content, which can aid in slowing down glucose absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Be mindful of your portion size; consider having a smaller serving of kimchi jjigae and filling up your plate with non-starchy vegetables.

Include Legumes

Add a small serving of lentils or beans as a side dish, which can provide additional fiber and protein.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Opt for water or unsweetened tea instead of sugary drinks, which can contribute to glucose spikes.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat your meal, which aids in better digestion and allows your body to better regulate blood sugar levels.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Be aware of other carbohydrate-rich components in your meal and try to keep them balanced with proteins and fats.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.
