How to consume english medu vada, rice idli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the English medu vada and rice idli to manage your glucose levels better. Smaller portions can help minimize the spike in blood sugar.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein in your meal, such as a small serving of Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a boiled egg. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing the impact on your glucose levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair your meal with foods high in fiber such as leafy greens, broccoli, or beans. Fiber can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates.

Limit Sugary Beverages

Avoid consuming sugary drinks alongside your meal. Opt for water, herbal tea, or other unsweetened beverages to prevent additional glucose spikes.

Timing of Meals

Spread out your meals to avoid large spikes in glucose. Eating smaller, more frequent meals can help maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to assist with glucose metabolism and maintain overall hydration.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as walking for 15-20 minutes after your meal. This can help lower post-meal blood glucose levels.

Alternative Grains

Consider swapping rice idli with alternatives like barley or quinoa, which have a lower impact on blood sugar.
