How to consume South Indian Food - Thali without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of high-carb elements like rice in your Thali. Consider using a smaller plate to help manage portions visually.

Protein Inclusion

Incorporate more protein-rich foods into your meal, such as lentils (dal) and paneer, which can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber Addition

Add fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, okra, or cabbage to your Thali to help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Balanced Plate

Ensure your Thali is balanced with a variety of foods, including a good mix of proteins, fibers, and healthy fats, to moderate the impact on your blood sugar.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like a small serving of avocados or a drizzle of olive oil over your veggies, which can help lower the blood sugar response.

Order of Consumption

Start your meal with vegetables and proteins before moving on to carbohydrates to help manage your glucose response more effectively.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal fullness and prevent overconsumption of carbs.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body use up the glucose more effectively.

Fermented Foods

Include a small portion of fermented foods like yogurt in your meal, which can support gut health and may help with glucose management.
