How to consume portuguese mushroom risotto without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by consuming a smaller portion of the risotto to reduce the total carbohydrate intake.

Protein Addition

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

Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or zucchini to the risotto. This can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal. Fats can slow the digestion and absorption process.

Vinegar Dressing

Before your meal, have a salad with a vinegar-based dressing to help improve insulin sensitivity.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after eating to help your body use the glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to your body's hunger and fullness signals, to avoid overeating.

Consistent Meal Timing

Try to eat your meals at consistent times each day to help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Herbal Tea

Consider drinking a cup of herbal tea like chamomile or peppermint after your meal to support digestion.
