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

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of both English medu vada and white rice. Smaller portions will have a lesser impact on your glucose levels.

Protein Addition

Include a source of protein with your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar by slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair your meal with high-fiber vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or cauliflower. Fiber slows down digestion and the release of sugar into the bloodstream.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats to your meal, such as avocados, olive oil, or nuts. Fats can also help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Lentils and Beans

Substitute part of the white rice with lentils or beans. They have a slower impact on blood sugar levels compared to refined grains.

Whole Grains

If possible, replace white rice with a smaller portion of brown rice or quinoa. Whole grains are digested more slowly and don’t cause as large a spike in blood sugar.

Acidic Foods

Add foods like lemon juice or vinegar to your meal. Acidic foods can lower the rise in blood sugar levels by delaying gastric emptying.

Meal Timing

Avoid eating large quantities of high-carbohydrate foods on an empty stomach. Eating them as part of a balanced meal can prevent large spikes in glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating. Physical activity helps your muscles use glucose and can reduce blood sugar spikes.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated helps your kidneys flush out excess sugar through urine.
