How to consume Fish Curry, Idli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the fish curry and idli to limit the intake of carbohydrates and fats, which can help in managing blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Fiber

Add a side of leafy green vegetables or a salad to your meal. Foods like spinach, kale, or broccoli can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to more stable blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

If you can, opt for whole-grain idli made with brown rice or mixed grains instead of regular idli. The additional fiber content can aid in controlling blood sugar spikes.

Protein Addition

Include a protein-rich side dish, such as grilled chicken or lentils. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar by slowing the digestion of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of healthy fats like avocado or nuts to your meal. These fats can also help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your meal to help with digestion and to manage blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. This can help your body use up some of the glucose from your meal, reducing the spike in blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal when you’re full, helping prevent overeating and excessive glucose intake.

Add Spices Wisely

Incorporate spices like cinnamon or turmeric into your curry as they may have beneficial effects on managing blood sugar levels.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how different foods affect your blood sugar levels and adjust your meal components accordingly for future meals.
