How to consume Idli, Ragi Dosa without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein such as a boiled egg, paneer, or a small portion of grilled chicken alongside your meal to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and reduce spikes.

Incorporate Fiber

Include a serving of vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or leafy greens with your idli or ragi dosa. This will add fiber, which can help moderate glucose absorption.

Use Whole Grains

When making idli or ragi dosa, consider blending in whole grains like oats or barley in small quantities to enhance the fiber content.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like a small amount of avocado, nuts, or seeds (such as flaxseeds or chia seeds) with your meal. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Control Portion Size

Reduce the portion size of idli or ragi dosa to decrease the carbohydrate load in one sitting, which can help manage glucose response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or an unsweetened herbal tea with your meal to aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Consider Fermented Foods

Including a small serving of fermented foods like a spoonful of plain yogurt or kefir with your meal can support gut health and glucose management.

Time Your Meals

Try to eat your meals at regular intervals and avoid skipping meals, as this can lead to larger spikes when you do eat.

Physical Activity

Engage in mild physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, chewing thoroughly, to give your body time to process the food and potentially reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.
