How to consume english toor dal without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Keep an eye on the portion size of toor dal you consume. Smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Combine with High-Fiber Foods
Include vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers with your meal. The fiber in these vegetables can slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels and provide sustained energy.
Pair with Protein
Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to your meal. Protein can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Include Whole Grains
If you are consuming rice with toor dal, choose whole grains like quinoa, bulgur, or barley, which can contribute to better blood sugar control.
Mindful Cooking Methods
Opt for cooking methods like steaming or boiling instead of frying, to maintain the nutritional quality and minimize the risk of additional spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.
Regular Physical Activity
Engage in light activity, such as a walk, after meals to help in the utilization of glucose and improve insulin sensitivity.
Meal Timing
Spread out your meals throughout the day to prevent large spikes. Eating smaller, more frequent meals can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Monitor Carbohydrate Intake
Keep track of the total carbohydrates you consume in a meal and try to distribute them evenly throughout the day.
