Indian Sweet - Arisa - Indian Sweet Arisalu (1 piece)

Keep the Arisalu portion small (for example, half or one small piece) and avoid having a second serving.

Eat it after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach; pair it with protein-rich foods such as plain Greek yogurt, paneer, eggs, or roasted chana.

Add fiber before the sweet, such as a salad with cucumber, tomatoes, and leafy greens, or a small serving of lentils/beans.

Avoid combining Arisalu with other fast-acting carbohydrates at the same time, including sweet drinks, fruit juice, white rice, or extra desserts.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk after eating to help reduce the post-meal rise.

Choose a smaller, less-frequent serving and reserve it for occasions when you can include protein, fiber, and activity around the meal.
