Stir-fried eggs

Adding chopped vegetables such as cabbage or carrots will help you feel fuller for longer and prevent rapid blood sugar rises.

 

What's different?

 

Eggs instead of wheat or rice cakes

 

Eggs are rich in protein, which helps build muscle in people with diabetes when consumed. More muscle mass helps burn glucose, which helps regulate blood sugar levels. Eating two eggs as directed provides 20% of the recommended daily protein intake. Eggs keep you feeling full longer and are low in calories, which can also help with weight management. A study by the University of Castilla-La Mancha in Spain found that people who consumed more eggs had a lower body mass index than those who consumed less.

Weight Loss Cheat Key Konjac

 

Konjac is a low-calorie food, containing approximately 10 calories per 100 grams. The Korean Society for the Study of Obesity also recommends konjac as a weight-control food. Its low calorie content, combined with dietary fiber and water, makes it particularly sticky. The dietary fiber in konjac dissolves in the intestines and sticks to other foods, slowing the absorption of carbohydrates and raising blood sugar levels. However, those with digestive problems or diabetes who have impaired digestive function should refrain from consuming konjac, as it can cause abdominal bloating, flatulence, and mild diarrhea. In these cases, consider replacing konjac with brown rice cakes or increasing the number of eggs consumed.

 

Onions and green onions add healthy sweetness

 

Onions and green onions are essential ingredients for making tteokbokki. Adding them to the broth will cook them during the cooking process, adding a sweet flavor. Onions are rich in quercetin, which helps prevent cardiovascular disease by preventing the accumulation of fat in blood vessels. To fully absorb the nutrients, slice the onion vertically. This way, the cells are destroyed, allowing the nutrients to become more active. The allicin in green onions boosts immunity, and vitamin C eliminates free radicals in the body, preventing inflammation.
