How to consume Idli | Tea without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the number of idlis you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help manage glucose spikes effectively.

Add Fiber

Pair your idlis with high-fiber foods like a small portion of mixed vegetable salad or a few slices of cucumber, which can help slow down digestion and prevent spikes.

Protein Addition

Include a source of protein, such as a small amount of paneer or a boiled egg, alongside your meal to slow down the absorption of glucose.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like a small serving of avocado or a few nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts) to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Herbal Tea

Opt for herbal teas without added sugar instead of regular tea to reduce sugar intake. Cinnamon or ginger tea can be good options.

Spacing Meals

Allow time between meals and snacks to give your body time to manage blood sugar levels effectively.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as proper hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body process the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Carbohydrates

Be mindful of the carbohydrates in other meals throughout the day to balance your overall intake.

Regular Monitoring

Keep a regular check on your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods and habits affect your glucose levels, and adjust accordingly.
