How to consume Dal, Roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion sizes of dal and roti you consume in a single meal. Smaller portions help prevent significant glucose spikes.

Balance Your Plate

Incorporate a variety of vegetables alongside your dal and roti. Vegetables like spinach, broccoli, and cauliflower are excellent choices due to their slow impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer. Protein helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber Addition

Increase the fiber content by adding lentils or chickpeas to your dal. Additionally, choose whole grain or multigrain roti instead of refined flour versions to enhance fiber intake.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, or a handful of nuts to your meal. Fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk or some stretching, before your meal to improve insulin sensitivity.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite. Mindful eating can help you recognize fullness cues and prevent overeating.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meals to help with digestion and to prevent overeating.

Timing

Try to eat meals at consistent times each day to help regulate your body's insulin response.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how your body responds and make necessary adjustments to your diet.
