How to consume chicken tikka biryani without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the chicken tikka biryani to decrease the overall carbohydrate intake.

Incorporate Vegetables

Add non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, or spinach to the meal. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Addition

Include a lean protein source such as grilled chicken or tofu on the side. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal. This can slow digestion and reduce the glucose spike.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body manage the blood sugar rise more effectively.

Hydrate Well

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Snack

Consider a small, low-carb snack such as a handful of almonds or a slice of cheese before eating the biryani. This can help blunt the blood sugar response.

Fiber Boost

Add a side salad with leafy greens like kale or romaine lettuce to increase the fiber content of your meal, slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Skip sugary drinks and opt for water or unsweetened tea, as these can compound the glucose spike.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in a light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.
