How to consume Coconut Chutney, Idli, Sambhar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of Idli, as it's made from fermented rice and can contribute to glucose spikes. Consider having one or two instead of multiple servings.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal, like a small serving of paneer or a few pieces of grilled chicken. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber

Include vegetables or a small salad with your meal. Fiber-rich foods help in moderating blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Switch to Complex Carbs

Consider using millets or whole grains as an alternative to rice when making Idli, as they generally have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like a small amount of avocado or a handful of nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, to your meal. Fats can help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Hydrate Adequately

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and control hunger, which might minimize the urge to overeat.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This can improve digestion and help you recognize when you are full, preventing overeating.

Physical Activity

Engage in a short walk or light exercise after your meal. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Ingredients

When making Coconut Chutney, reduce the amount of coconut and add more herbs like mint or coriander to increase the fiber content.

Choose Low-Sugar Options

Avoid adding sugar to your Coconut Chutney or Sambhar, and focus on spices and herbs for flavor enhancement.
