How to consume Rice With Beans And Chicken without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of rice and increase the proportion of beans and chicken to balance the meal.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice or another whole grain alternative to white rice, as these are digested more slowly.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to add fiber and nutrients.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a sprinkle of nuts, to slow down digestion.

Cook the Rice Al Dente

Slightly undercook the rice so it retains more of its natural resistance to digestion.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly to help regulate digestion and absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and prevent overeating.

Balanced Meal Timing

Pair your meal with a protein-rich snack or small salad about 30 minutes prior to eating.

Accompany with Protein

Ensure the chicken portion is sufficient to help balance carbohydrate intake with protein.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Consider consuming a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar diluted in water before the meal to potentially moderate blood sugar levels.
