How to consume cooked rice, english masoor dal without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of cooked rice on your plate. Try to balance it with a larger portion of non-starchy vegetables or salad.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein in your meal. Options like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats to your meal, such as a few slices of avocado, a drizzle of olive oil, or a handful of nuts. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add fiber-rich vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your meal to help slow down digestion.

Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Consider adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal. These can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Choose Brown Rice

If possible, substitute white rice with brown rice or other whole grains like quinoa or barley.

Mindful Eating Practices

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly to improve digestion and manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light exercise, such as a short walk, before meals to improve insulin sensitivity.

Evening Timing

If possible, consume rice and dal during lunch rather than dinner to allow for more activity and metabolism throughout the day.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support your metabolism and manage blood sugar levels.
