How to consume Banana | Khichdi without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Balance the meal by adding protein sources like eggs or Greek yogurt, or healthy fats such as nuts or avocado. This can slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include more fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or lentils when consuming bananas or khichdi. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Eat Smaller Portions

Reducing the portion size of bananas or khichdi can help in managing the glucose spike.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after eating. This can help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Choose Unripe Bananas

Opt for greener bananas as they contain more resistant starch, which is digested more slowly.

Include Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or peppers to your meal to add volume and nutrients, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process the food and manage glucose release gradually.

Monitor Your Body’s Response

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how specific foods affect you personally and adjust your diet accordingly.

Consider Cinnamon

Add a dash of cinnamon to your dishes, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce glucose spikes.
