How to consume dal, instant white rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of both dal and instant white rice to limit the carbohydrate intake from these foods.

Mix with Non-Starchy Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers into your meal to add fiber and slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Choose Whole Grains

Substitute instant white rice with small portions of brown rice, quinoa, or barley, which are less processed and have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds in your meal to help slow the digestion process and stabilize blood sugar.

Incorporate Protein

Add lean protein sources like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to your meal to help reduce the glucose spike.

Cook Rice with Beans or Lentils

Combine rice with beans or lentils, which are high in fiber and protein, to create a more balanced dish.

Use Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal, as the acidity can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat at a slower pace to give your body more time to process and regulate blood sugar levels.

Stay Active After Meals

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body use glucose more effectively.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how different combinations and preparations affect your glucose levels and adjust your approach accordingly.
