How to consume quick pongal without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the amount of quick pongal you consume to minimize the impact on your blood glucose levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a serving of vegetables such as sautéed spinach or a small salad with your meal to slow down glucose absorption.

Incorporate Protein

Include a source of protein like boiled eggs, lentils, or a small portion of grilled chicken with your meal to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats such as a few slices of avocado or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts to your meal.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to help with digestion and glucose regulation.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to help your body use up the excess glucose.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite to give your body time to process the food, which can help prevent overeating.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood glucose levels to understand how your body reacts and adjust your dietary habits accordingly.

Herbal Spices

Consider adding cinnamon or fenugreek seeds to your meal, as they may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Balanced Breakfast

If consuming pongal for breakfast, ensure the rest of your day's meals are balanced with whole grains, lean proteins, and plenty of vegetables.
