How to consume boiled egg, english indian pongal rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the pongal rice to minimize the spike. Consider balancing it with a larger serving of boiled egg, which has minimal impact on glucose levels.

Incorporate Fiber

Add a side of fiber-rich vegetables like steamed broccoli or spinach. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing the glucose spike.

Add Protein

Include additional protein sources such as grilled chicken or tofu. Protein can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing down digestion.

Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with healthy fats, such as a small serving of avocado or a sprinkle of flaxseeds. This can help reduce the rate of carbohydrate absorption.

Vinegar Boost

Consider adding a splash of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your meal. Vinegar has been shown to help moderate blood sugar spikes when consumed with meals.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your body use glucose more effectively, reducing spikes.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food. Eating more slowly can lead to better digestion and a more gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Herbs and Spices

Use cinnamon or turmeric in your pongal rice preparation. These spices can help manage blood sugar levels.

Balanced Meal Timing

Ensure your meal is part of a balanced daily diet, with regular meal times to help maintain steady blood sugar levels throughout the day.
