How to consume english indian dal tadka, roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both dal tadka and roti to help manage carbohydrate intake and prevent large glucose spikes.

Fiber-Rich Additions

Include a side of leafy greens or a mixed vegetable salad. The fiber can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain or multi-grain roti instead of regular roti. Whole grains are digested more slowly, which can help in reducing glucose spikes.

Protein Addition

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer, to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a small handful of nuts. These fats can slow down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help in better digestion and management of blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process the food gradually, preventing rapid increases in blood sugar.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after eating to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Spice Management

When preparing dal tadka, consider reducing the amount of ghee or oil used, and use spices that can help in managing blood sugar levels, such as cinnamon or fenugreek.

Timing of Meals

Try to maintain consistent meal timings to help your body regulate blood sugar levels more effectively throughout the day.
