How to consume Wild Rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of wild rice you consume. Smaller portions can lead to smaller glucose spikes.

Add Fiber

Include high-fiber foods in your meal, such as lentils or beans, which can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Protein Pairing

Eat wild rice with a source of lean protein like chicken breast or tofu. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado or nuts in your meal to moderate the rise in blood sugar.

Vegetable Mix

Include non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale in your meal. These foods have a low impact on blood sugar and can add bulk to your meal, making you feel fuller.

Vinegar Use

Add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your wild rice dish. Acidity can help slow down carbohydrate breakdown.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Proper hydration supports your body's ability to manage blood sugar levels.

Spread Out Intake

Instead of consuming a large amount of wild rice at once, spread your intake throughout the day to prevent spikes.

Activity Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after eating. This can help your body use up some of the glucose from your meal.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how your body responds to different portion sizes and combinations. Adjust your eating habits based on your observations and consult with a healthcare professional if needed.
