How to consume Cooked Lentils, White Rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both cooked lentils and white rice to limit the carbohydrate load and moderate the glucose response.

Add Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber foods like vegetables (e.g., leafy greens, broccoli, or carrots) into the meal. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Protein

Add a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes like chickpeas. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado slices, olive oil, or nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts). Fats can slow digestion and reduce glucose spikes.

Vinegar Addition

Consider adding a splash of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your meal or salad dressing. Vinegar has properties that may help moderate blood sugar levels.

Mixed Grains

Substitute a portion of the white rice with whole grains like quinoa or barley, which generally have a slower impact on blood sugar.

Pre-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, before eating. This can enhance insulin sensitivity and help manage blood sugar levels.

Balanced Meal Timing

Space out your meals and snacks consistently throughout the day to avoid large intervals that may lead to overeating and glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration supports overall metabolic processes and glucose regulation.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to enhance digestion and promote better blood sugar control.
