How to consume Coconut Chutney, Homemade - Idly - South Indian, Sambar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of coconut chutney. Smaller portions can help lessen the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Balance with Protein

Pair your meal with a protein source such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a handful of nuts. Protein helps moderate blood sugar spikes by slowing down digestion.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include vegetables like spinach or broccoli to your meal. They are high in fiber, which helps slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Use Whole Grains

If possible, replace regular idly with a version made from whole grains or mixed grains, as they have a slower digestion rate.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado or a sprinkle of chia seeds. Fats also aid in slowing down carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal, which can aid digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Cookware and Ingredients

Use non-stick cookware to reduce the amount of oil needed when preparing chutney and sambar, and opt for healthier oils like olive or canola.

Meal Timing

Space out your meals and snacks throughout the day to prevent large spikes in blood sugar. Eating smaller meals more frequently can help maintain steadier levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite to help prevent overeating, as eating too quickly can lead to higher blood sugar levels.
