How to consume dg - idlii (2 pieces), vada (1), one cup sambhar with chutney, 1 plate without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the idli and vada. Consider having just one idli and half a vada to minimize the carbohydrate load.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a serving of high-fiber vegetables, such as steamed broccoli or spinach, to your meal. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Protein

Incorporate a protein source, such as a boiled egg or a small portion of grilled chicken or tofu, to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, opt for whole-grain idlis made from brown rice or millets, which can have a more gradual impact on blood sugar levels.

Modify Ingredients

Use lentils or chickpea flour for making vada to add more protein and fiber, reducing the impact on blood sugar.

Limit Chutney

Consider using less chutney, especially if it contains high-sugar ingredients. Opt for coconut chutney with minimal additives.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout your meal to aid digestion and maintain hydration, which can help in managing blood sugar levels.

Timing

Try eating meals at regular intervals and avoid consuming this meal late at night.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Monitor Ingredients

Ensure your sambhar is made with plenty of vegetables and minimal oil, as this can make the meal more balanced and healthful.
