Incorporate vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or grated carrots into the idli batter to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Eat your idli with a source of protein such as cottage cheese, yogurt, or a side of lentil soup (sambar) to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or nuts on the side. These fats can moderate the absorption of glucose.

Having a glass of water before eating can help you feel fuller and reduce the quantity of idli consumed, thereby lowering the glucose spike.

Use a blend of whole grains like quinoa or oats in your idli batter to increase the overall nutrient and fiber content.

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

Mix fenugreek seeds into the batter. Fenugreek has properties that help manage blood sugar levels.

Have a small side salad with leafy greens and a light dressing. The fiber in the salad can help moderate your glucose response.

Ensure the idli batter is well-fermented. Fermentation can lower the carbohydrate's impact on glucose levels.

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after eating to help reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes.

Ultrahuman M1 helps you measure the impact of food and activity on your body in real time through glucose as a biomarker.
