How to consume Banana, Idli without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein such as Greek yogurt or boiled eggs with your meal to help moderate the rise in blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like a small serving of nuts or avocado. These fats can slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add fiber-rich foods such as chia seeds or flaxseeds to your meal. Fiber can help slow the absorption of sugar.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of bananas and idlis, allowing room for other low-carb foods to balance the meal.

Pair with Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables like spinach or cucumbers as a side to increase fiber and nutrients.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal teas during your meal, as staying hydrated can assist in the digestion process.

Physical Activity

Engage in a light walk or other forms of gentle physical activity after meals to help lower blood sugar levels post-consumption.

Timing

Consider consuming bananas and idlis at different times rather than together, to avoid a concentrated intake of carbohydrates at once.

Add Spices

Use spices like cinnamon, which may help improve insulin sensitivity and slow down the absorption of sugar.

Monitor Meal Composition

Always aim for a balanced plate that includes proteins, fats, and fibers alongside your carbs to promote a more stable blood sugar response.
