How to consume Idly vada without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of idly and vada to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Balanced Meal

Pair idly and vada with high-fiber vegetables like spinach or broccoli to slow down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or a boiled egg, to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats to your meal, such as a small amount of avocado or a handful of nuts, to slow digestion and prevent spikes.

Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain or multi-grain idly instead of the traditional version, as these have a slower absorption rate.

Timing of Meals

Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to maintain steady blood sugar levels and prevent spikes.

Physical Activity

Incorporate light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help maintain optimal blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues, to prevent overeating.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand how your body responds to certain foods and adjust your diet accordingly.
