How to consume Dal, White rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the amount of white rice in your meal. Consider a smaller serving to help manage your glucose levels more effectively.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or Greek yogurt, to your meal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats like avocado slices, a sprinkle of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Switch to Brown Rice

Replace white rice with brown rice or a similar alternative like quinoa or barley, which are less likely to cause a glucose spike.

Add Vegetables

Increase the volume of your meal by adding non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers. These can help slow the digestion process.

Eat in the Right Order

Start your meal with vegetables and protein before consuming the dal and rice. This sequence can help in maintaining a more stable glucose level.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal, which can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Spices

Use spices like cinnamon or turmeric, which have been shown to aid in blood sugar control, to flavor your dal.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This practice can help your body better process the food and may prevent a rapid increase in glucose levels.

Regular Physical Activity

Incorporate physical activity, such as a short walk after meals, to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
