How to consume Quinoa, Sambar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of quinoa and sambar to minimize the impact on your glucose levels. Smaller servings can help manage the glucose response.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale into your meal. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fat, such as avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds, to your meal. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Protein Pairing

Include a lean protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils with your quinoa and sambar. Protein can help moderate glucose spikes.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat your meal. Chewing slowly and savoring your food can improve digestion and glucose regulation.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help lower glucose levels by enhancing insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Ingredients

Ensure that the sambar does not contain high amounts of added sugars or refined carbohydrates.

Timing of Meals

Try to eat at consistent times each day to help regulate your body's insulin response.

Stay Stress-Free

Practice stress-reducing techniques like deep breathing or meditation, as stress can impact blood sugar levels.
