How to consume Idli, Tea With Milk without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the idlis and ensure you are not consuming too many at once. Smaller quantities can help in managing blood sugar levels better.

Fiber Addition

Accompany your meal with high-fiber foods such as a small serving of salad or a bowl of vegetables. Fiber can slow down the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.

Protein Pairing

Incorporate a source of protein, such as a boiled egg or a few nuts, alongside your idlis. This can help in balancing the meal and mitigating spikes.

Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats, like a teaspoon of coconut oil or a few slices of avocado, to the meal. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Cinnamon Sprinkle

Consider adding a pinch of cinnamon to your tea. Cinnamon has properties that may help in controlling blood glucose levels.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal to help with digestion and glucose absorption.

Tea Adjustments

Opt for unsweetened or lightly sweetened tea with less milk to reduce the carbohydrate load from lactose.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-minute walk, after your meal to help your body use glucose more effectively.

Meal Timing

Try consuming the meal at a time when you are physically active rather than right before resting or sleeping, as activity can help in glucose utilization.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly to aid digestion and allow your body to better regulate blood sugar levels.
