How to consume english dal, steamed rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both dal and rice to manage the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help mitigate a spike.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or zucchini into the meal. They can add fiber and nutrients while helping to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Protein

Add a source of protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer, to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, replace steamed white rice with brown rice or quinoa. They are less processed and have more fiber.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like a small serving of nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of olive oil in your meal. Fats can help slow digestion and the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and potentially reduce the rate of glucose absorption.

Post-Meal Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood glucose levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to hunger and fullness cues. This can help prevent overeating and aid in better digestion.

Balance Your Plate

Aim for a balanced plate with a moderate amount of dal and rice, plenty of vegetables, a protein source, and healthy fats.

Consistent Meal Timing

Maintain regular meal times to help regulate blood sugar levels throughout the day.
