Add a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a handful of nuts to your meal. This can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include high-fiber vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers in your dish to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate healthy fats, such as avocado or olive oil, to further slow carbohydrate absorption.

Use a vinegar-based dressing, such as apple cider vinegar, on salads accompanying your meal to help lower the post-meal blood sugar response.

Consider consuming mung beans as part of a balanced meal rather than on their own to help stabilize glucose levels.

Start your meal with a salad or a broth-based soup, as this can help reduce the impact of the mung beans on your blood sugar.

Prepare mung beans using methods that retain more of their natural fibers, such as slow cooking or steaming, rather than frying or overcooking.

Eat your meal slowly and chew thoroughly to enhance digestion and reduce glucose spikes.
