How to consume english dal without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a source of protein with your meal, like grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils, which can help slow down glucose absorption.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil to your meal. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add more fiber-rich vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your dish. Fiber helps to slow digestion and glucose absorption.
Limit Portion Size
Consider reducing the portion of English dal you consume to prevent significant glucose spikes.
Add Whole Grains
Serve the dal with small portions of whole grains like quinoa or barley instead of refined grains or white rice.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help maintain stable blood sugar levels and support overall health.
Engage in Light Exercise
Take a brisk walk after your meal, which can help your body use glucose more efficiently and lower blood sugar levels.
Eat Mindfully
Focus on eating slowly and mindfully, which can help improve digestion and prevent overeating.
Avoid Sugary Additions
Skip adding any sweeteners or sugar-rich accompaniments to your meal to keep glucose levels in check.
Try Vinegar
Incorporate a small amount of vinegar, like apple cider vinegar, in your salad or as part of your dressing, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity.
