How to consume classic chicken biryani without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the biryani to minimize the spike. Smaller meals can result in less pronounced glucose increases.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli into your biryani. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your biryani with a side salad that includes leafy greens and avocado, which are high in fiber and can assist in moderating blood sugar levels.

Include Protein

Add a serving of plain Greek yogurt on the side. The protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Use Whole Grains

If cooking at home, use brown basmati rice instead of white rice in the biryani. Whole grains digest more slowly and cause a more gradual rise in blood sugar.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of nuts, like almonds, as a snack or side dish to provide healthy fats that can slow digestion.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to properly process the food.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk after your meal. Light physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Balance your overall daily carbohydrate intake by reducing carbs in other meals if you plan to have biryani.
