How to consume Chicken Biryani, Cucumber (Peeled) without glucose spikes

Increase Protein Intake

Pair your meal with a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken breast or tofu, to help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices, a sprinkle of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal. These can help slow down digestion and prevent spikes.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Include additional non-starchy vegetables, such as spinach or bell peppers, to increase fiber content and reduce the overall impact on blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, make your biryani with brown rice or other whole grains instead of white rice to slow the digestive process.

Reduce Portion Size

Control the portion size of your biryani to limit the amount of carbohydrates consumed in one sitting.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal, which can help you feel full and reduce the amount of food you consume.

Eat Slowly

Take your time while eating to allow your body to properly digest and manage blood sugar responses more efficiently.

Combine with Legumes

Consider adding lentils or chickpeas to your biryani. They provide additional fiber and protein, moderating the rise in glucose levels.

Consider a Balanced Plate

Ensure your meal includes a mix of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Consuming a small amount of apple cider vinegar diluted in water before your meal may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce spikes.
