How to consume english rajma, quinoa (cooked) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of both rajma and quinoa. This can help manage your blood sugar levels more effectively.

Add Leafy Greens

Include a generous serving of leafy greens such as spinach or kale with your meal. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds (such as almonds or chia seeds) to your meal to further moderate glucose absorption.

Protein Addition

Enhance your meal with a lean protein source like grilled chicken or tofu, which can stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing digestion and absorption.

Timing of Meals

Eat your meal slowly and consider consuming it at regular intervals, which can help prevent dramatic spikes in blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Fiber

Consider having a small salad or a handful of raw vegetables like cucumber or bell peppers before your main meal to enhance fiber intake.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can assist in the digestion process and moderate glucose spikes.

Vinegar Addition

Use a small amount of vinegar-based salad dressing or add a splash of apple cider vinegar to your dish. Vinegar can help in moderating blood sugar levels post-meal.

Physical Activity

Incorporate a light walk or gentle physical activity post-meal to enhance glucose uptake by the muscles.

Monitor Food Combinations

Pay attention to how different food combinations affect your glucose levels and adjust accordingly. Mixing high-fiber and low-carb foods with your meal can be beneficial.
