How to consume Idli, Sambar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of idli and sambar you consume at one time to help moderate the glucose impact.

Incorporate Fiber

Add high-fiber vegetables such as spinach or broccoli to your sambar, as fiber can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Protein

Pair your meal with a small serving of protein, like boiled eggs or grilled chicken, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats Addition

Include a source of healthy fats, such as a few slices of avocado or a handful of nuts, which can help in slowing down digestion and absorption of sugars.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal tea before or with your meal to aid digestion and help control blood sugar spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help utilize the glucose in your bloodstream.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try eating smaller meals more frequently throughout the day rather than large meals, which helps maintain steadier blood sugar levels.

Alternative Grain Options

Consider occasionally substituting idli with other grains like quinoa or barley which can be lower in carbohydrate content.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, chewing your food thoroughly, which can aid digestion and help in better blood sugar management.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels regularly to understand how different foods affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.
