How to consume cooked millets with salad and chicken curry without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of cooked millets to limit the carbohydrate load in the meal, which can help in moderating the glucose spike.

Incorporate Fiber

Add more high-fiber vegetables to your salad, such as spinach, kale, or broccoli, to slow down digestion and the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your salad. These can help delay gastric emptying and reduce the overall blood sugar response.

Protein Balance

Ensure that your chicken curry has an adequate amount of protein and is not overly saucy with high-carb ingredients. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Vinegar Addition

Consider using a vinegar-based salad dressing. Vinegar can improve insulin sensitivity and help moderate post-meal blood sugar spikes.

Timing of Foods

Start your meal with the salad and protein-rich chicken curry before eating the millets. This sequence can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to improve digestion and help with the regulation of blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and give your body time to signal when it's full, which can prevent overeating and subsequent spikes.

Meal Consistency

Try to maintain consistency in your meal composition and timing to help regulate your body’s response to food.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after meals and adjust your food combinations and portion sizes based on your observations to better manage glucose spikes.
