How to consume english kala chana, white rice without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of both kala chana and white rice to minimize the glucose load from each meal.
Add Vegetables
Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your meal. These can help slow down digestion and reduce glucose spikes.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocados, nuts, or olive oil. Fats can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.
Protein Pairing
Introduce a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish. Protein helps moderate the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.
Swap White Rice
Replace white rice with barley or quinoa, which have slower digestion rates and can help reduce spikes in glucose.
Cook with Spices
Use spices like cinnamon or turmeric. These have been known to help with blood sugar regulation and can add flavor to your meal without added sugars.
Monitor Cooking Methods
Opt for cooking methods like steaming or boiling for rice and kala chana instead of frying, to avoid added fats and sugars.
Spread the Meal
Instead of consuming your whole meal at once, spread it out over a longer period to allow your body more time to manage glucose absorption.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during meals, as adequate hydration can help with optimal digestion and might reduce the concentration of glucose in the bloodstream.
