How to consume chicken biryani, english parotta bread without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of chicken biryani and parotta to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing glucose spikes.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a side of leafy green salad or steamed non-starchy vegetables like broccoli or spinach to your meal to slow down digestion and glucose absorption.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled fish or lentils alongside your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small serving of healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts) to slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and glucose regulation.

Meal Timing

Consume your meal at regular intervals to help your body manage insulin response more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body metabolize glucose more efficiently.

Incorporate Whole Grains

If making your own biryani, consider using brown basmati rice and pairing it with whole grain or multigrain parotta to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and signal when you are full, preventing overeating.

Monitor Blood Sugar Levels

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating to understand how different foods affect you personally and make adjustments accordingly.
