How to consume english medu vada, idli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of medu vada and idli you consume in one meal to reduce the carbohydrate load on your body.

Fiber Addition

Pair your meal with high-fiber foods like leafy greens, broccoli, or a side salad. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Protein Inclusion

Include a source of protein such as a small serving of yogurt, grilled chicken, or lentils to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like a few slices of avocado, a sprinkle of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal to help moderate the release of glucose.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body process carbohydrates more efficiently.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a walk after your meal to help your muscles use some of the sugar for energy.

Timing

Consider eating medu vada and idli during breakfast or lunch instead of later in the day to take advantage of higher insulin sensitivity in the morning.

Food Swaps

Try substituting a portion of your meal with low-carb alternatives like zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, chewing thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to signal fullness.

Monitor Blood Sugar
