How to consume dosa, dal yellow without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of dosa and dal. Smaller portions can help manage blood glucose levels more effectively.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers with your meal. These can slow down the digestion process, leading to a more gradual release of glucose.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a handful of almonds, to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, make dosa using whole grain or multi-grain flours, which digest more slowly than refined grains.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal. Staying hydrated can support better digestion and help control blood sugar spikes.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew thoroughly and enjoy your meal. Eating slowly can help prevent overeating and allow your body to better regulate glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help lower blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity.

Timing of Meals

Try to eat at regular intervals without long gaps between meals. This can prevent sudden spikes by keeping blood sugar levels consistent throughout the day.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Keep track of the total amount of carbohydrates consumed during meals and aim to balance it with activities and other nutrient intake.

Mindful Pairing

Pair your dosa and dal with foods high in healthy fats, such as avocados or nuts. Healthy fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates, helping to prevent spikes.
