How to consume Sushi without glucose spikes

Limit White Rice Intake

Since sushi typically contains white rice, which can cause glucose spikes, try to consume it in moderation. Consider opting for sushi rolls with less rice or sashimi (fish without rice) instead.

Include Protein-Rich Options

Incorporate more protein-rich sushi choices, such as sashimi or rolls with fish and avocado, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Ingredients

Include sushi rolls that contain ingredients like avocado, cucumber, or seaweed, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Brown Rice Sushi

If available, opt for sushi made with brown rice instead of white rice, as it is absorbed more slowly by the body.

Start with a Salad

Eating a salad with leafy greens before your sushi meal can help reduce the impact of the carbohydrates from the rice.

Drink Water or Unsweetened Tea

Stay hydrated with water or unsweetened tea instead of sugary drinks, which can contribute to glucose spikes.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time eating, as this can help your body better manage the digestion and absorption of the carbohydrates.

Balance with Non-Sushi Options

Pair your sushi with small portions of low-carb dishes, like miso soup or edamame, to add variety and balance to your meal.

Limit Soy Sauce Use

Opt for low-sodium soy sauce in moderation, as it can contribute to increased sodium intake and potentially affect blood sugar control.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the portion sizes of the sushi you consume to prevent overeating, which can lead to a higher glucose spike.
