How to consume english arhar dal, rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both arhar dal and rice in your meals to manage the overall carbohydrate intake.

Add Vegetables

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

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice instead of white rice to introduce more fiber and nutrients, which help in moderating the rise in glucose levels.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to your meal to support balanced blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or olive oil to slow digestion and glucose absorption.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly to give your body time to process the carbohydrates and regulate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during the meal to aid digestion and help manage blood sugar spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity like walking for 10-15 minutes after your meal to help lower glucose levels.

Monitor Timings

Try to eat consistently at the same time each day to help regulate your body's insulin response and glucose levels.

Pre-meal Snack

Consider having a small, healthy snack with a low carbohydrate content, like a handful of almonds, before your main meal to help manage post-meal glucose spikes.
