How to consume rice idli, rice idli without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein such as a side of boiled eggs, lentil soup (dal), or grilled chicken to your rice idli meal. Proteins help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Fiber

Include fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or a mixed vegetable salad. Fiber slows down the digestion process, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.

Use Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as a small amount of avocado, nuts, or seeds. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Drink Water Before Eating

Have a glass of water before starting your meal to help fill your stomach and potentially slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Eat Smaller Portions

Reducing the portion size of rice idlis can help manage the carbohydrate load and prevent a large spike in blood sugar.

Choose Fermented Foods

Pair rice idli with fermented foods like yogurt or kimchi. Fermented foods can improve digestion and help keep blood sugar levels stable.

Add Lemon Juice

Squeeze some lemon juice over your meal. The acidity in lemon can help lower the impact of carbohydrates on your blood sugar.

Include Spices

Add spices like cinnamon or turmeric to your meal. These spices have been shown to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Exercise Moderately

Engage in moderate physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.

Timing of Meals

Avoid eating large portions late at night. Eating earlier in the day can help your body better manage blood sugar levels.
