How to consume Banana | Khichdi without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a boiled egg, to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates. Adding healthy fats like avocado can also help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Incorporate additional fibrous vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers into your meal. Fiber can help slow digestion and the absorption of sugar, reducing spikes.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the banana or khichdi to lessen the impact on your blood sugar. You can still enjoy them in moderation.

Opt for Unripe Bananas

Choose slightly greener bananas, as they have a lower sugar content compared to fully ripe ones.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before and during your meal can help maintain stable blood sugar levels by facilitating digestion.

Include Vinegar

Try adding a splash of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your meal. Vinegar can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Engage in Physical Activity

Going for a walk or engaging in light exercise after meals can help your body use the glucose more efficiently.

Choose Whole Grains

If the khichdi is made with white rice, consider using brown rice or quinoa instead, as they are digested more slowly.

Monitor Meal Timing

Eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day can help maintain stable blood sugar levels compared to having larger meals.

Stay Consistent with Meal Times

Try to eat your meals at roughly the same times each day to help regulate your body's natural insulin response.
