How to consume Homemade - Idly - South Indian without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a source of protein, such as boiled eggs or a serving of yogurt, with your idly meal. This can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate a small amount of healthy fats, like avocado or a spoonful of coconut chutney, to help moderate blood sugar levels.
Increase Fiber
Serve idly with fiber-rich vegetables such as sautéed spinach or a mixed vegetable sambar to slow glucose absorption.
Portion Control
Reduce the number of idlies you consume in one sitting and spread out your intake over multiple meals.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water with your meal, as proper hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before consuming your meal to help improve insulin sensitivity.
Post-Meal Activity
Take a brief walk or engage in light stretches after your meal to help facilitate glucose uptake by your muscles.
Monitor Timing
Eat your idly as part of a balanced breakfast or lunch to give your body ample time during the day to process the glucose spike.
Limit Added Sugars
Avoid adding refined sugars or sweetened toppings to your meal to prevent additional spikes.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and savor your meal, which can help signal fullness earlier and prevent overeating.
