How to consume indian takeaway without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice or whole wheat roti instead of white rice or naan. These alternatives have slower-digesting carbohydrates.

Start with a Salad

Begin your meal with a vegetable salad dressed with olive oil and vinegar. This can help moderate blood sugar responses.

Include Protein

Add a side of grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils to your meal. Proteins can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower. Fiber helps in slowing the digestion process.

Control Portions

Be mindful of portion sizes. Eating smaller amounts can help keep your blood sugar more stable.

Hydrate Well

Drink water before and during your meal to help digestion and reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar.

Avoid Sugary Sauces

Skip or limit dishes with sweet sauces like mango chutney or sweet curries. Opt for more savory or spicy options.

Pair with Fat

Include healthy fats such as avocado or a small amount of nuts. Fat can help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Eat Slowly

Take your time eating to give your body a chance to begin digestion and better regulate blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing

If possible, have your meal earlier in the day when your body is more efficient at managing blood sugar levels.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help reduce blood sugar levels.

Limit High-Carb Sides

Avoid additional high-carb sides like samosas or pakoras which can contribute to a higher spike.
