πŸ‘€ Visual Tip #1: The Balanced Plate Rule

🟒 Β½ Plate – Non-starchy vegetables (greens, cucumbers, peppers)
🟑 ΒΌ Plate – Quality protein (eggs, fish, chicken, tempeh, tofu)
πŸ”΅ ΒΌ Plate – Low-glycemic carbs or whole grains (quinoa, sweet potato)
βž• Add healthy fats (avocado, olive oil, seeds)

Print this plate out. Stick it on your fridge. Use it to guide your next meal.



πŸ‘€ Visual Tip #2: Swap Your Drink

Instead of This

Try This Instead

Sweetened fruit juice πŸ§ƒ

Infused water πŸ‹ + mint or cucumber

Milk tea with pearls πŸ§‹

Unsweetened iced herbal tea 🍡

Condensed milk coffee β˜•πŸ₯«

Black coffee or coconut milk latte πŸ₯₯

Soda or cola πŸ₯€

Sparkling water with lime 🍈

Stick this table in your kitchen or phone gallery. Use it when ordering drinks or choosing at the grocery store!



πŸ‘€ Visual Tip #3: The β€œProtein First” Rule

Whenever you sit down to eat, follow this order:

 πŸ₯š Step 1 – Eat the Protein
πŸ₯— Step 2 – Eat the Veggies (fibre)
🍚 Step 3 – Eat the Carbs (if any)

This simple change can reduce your post-meal blood sugar spikes by up to 30–50% (according to multiple studies!).



πŸ‘€ Visual Tip #4: The Fat-Protein-Fibre Guide

Follow this blood sugar-friendly plate guide:

 πŸ”Ί Fat (avocado, olive oil, nuts)
πŸ”» Protein (eggs, fish, tofu, tempeh)
πŸ”» Fibre (leafy greens, chia seeds, non-starchy veggies)

Combine all 3 in every meal or snack. This combo keeps blood sugar stable for hours.



πŸ‘€ Visual Tip #5: The "Move After Meals" Rule

πŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈ 10-minute walk after meals = better blood sugar

Studies show just a short walk after eating can lower blood sugar spikes significantly.

πŸ•’ Set a reminder: β€œWalk for 10” after breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

It could be the easiest and most effective habit you build for your health.



πŸ‘€ Visual Tip #6: Black Ginger = Metabolism Switch

πŸ”› Turn on glucose and fat burning

πŸ”› Turn down inflammation

Here’s what you need to do: 
πŸ’₯ Take the right dose daily
βš™οΈ Pair with physical activity
πŸ₯— Combine with low-carb meals
⏳ Stick with it for at least 4–8 weeks
