How to consume Ragi idly without glucose spikes
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers into your meal. This can slow down digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Protein
Pair your Ragi idly with a source of protein, such as a side of lentil soup, boiled eggs, or a small portion of grilled chicken to help moderate the glucose response.
Use Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats, like avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil, to your meal. Fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates, helping to keep blood sugar levels in check.
Portion Control
Be mindful of portion sizes. Consuming smaller amounts can help manage glucose levels more effectively.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated helps with digestion and can contribute to better blood sugar control.
Combine with Low-Carb Sides
Serve your idly with low-carbohydrate sides, such as cucumber salad or a bowl of mixed greens, to balance your meal.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew thoroughly and enjoy your meal slowly. This gives your body more time to process and regulate glucose levels.
Physical Activity
Incorporate light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to enhance glucose uptake by your muscles and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Monitor Timing
Try to consume Ragi idly earlier in the day when your body’s insulin sensitivity is typically higher, which can help better manage glucose spikes.
Consider Fermentation
Allow the Ragi batter to ferment for a longer period, as fermentation can break down carbohydrates and result in a milder glucose response.
