How to consume english arhar dal, steamed rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of rice you consume. Consider having a smaller portion of rice and increasing the portion of arhar dal instead.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers into your meal. These can help slow down digestion and the absorption of glucose.

Mix with Lentils

Combine your arhar dal with other lentils such as moong dal to add variety and balance the meal.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice instead of white rice. Brown rice is less processed and can have a slower impact on blood glucose levels.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken or tofu to your meal. This can help reduce the glucose spike by slowing digestion.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small amount of healthy fats, like a drizzle of olive oil or a few slices of avocado, to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before your meal to stay hydrated, which can aid in digestion and help control blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time while eating to allow your body to properly digest and absorb nutrients, which can help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, before your meal to help improve your body’s ability to manage glucose.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how your body responds to different food combinations and adjust your meal components accordingly to minimize glucose spikes.
