How to consume english pulav, plain dahi without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the English pulav to manage the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help in minimizing the glucose spike.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein such as grilled chicken, boiled eggs, or tofu to your meal. Protein slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices, a handful of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your pulav. Fats can help slow digestion and provide a feeling of fullness.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include more fiber-rich vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers in your pulav. Fiber helps slow carbohydrate absorption, reducing the impact on blood sugar.

Opt for Brown Rice

Use brown rice instead of white rice in your pulav, as it contains more fiber and nutrients, which can aid in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Add Legumes

Incorporate sources of legumes such as lentils or chickpeas into your pulav. They are high in fiber and protein, contributing to better blood sugar control.

Choose Low-Sugar Yogurt

Opt for plain, unsweetened yogurt or dahi and avoid adding sugar. You might consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few berries for flavor without increasing sugar content.

Hydration

Ensure adequate water intake before and after your meal to help with digestion and the overall metabolism of carbohydrates.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after eating. This can help your body use the glucose more efficiently and lower blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite, which can help improve digestion and regulate your body's response to the carbohydrates consumed.
