How to consume Rice sambar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of rice in your meal. Smaller portions can help manage the body's insulin response.

Add Fiber

Incorporate more vegetables into your sambar or as a side to your meal. Vegetables like spinach, carrots, and beans can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for brown rice or other whole grains instead of white rice. These have less impact on blood sugar levels.

Include Protein

Add a side of protein such as lentils, chickpeas, or tofu. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats like nuts or seeds. Almonds or flaxseeds sprinkled over your meal can help in moderating blood sugar spikes.

Chew Slowly

Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. This can aid digestion and potentially reduce glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during the meal. Proper hydration can help in the digestion of carbohydrates.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body manage the sugar levels more effectively.

Monitor Timing

Try to have your meals at regular intervals. Skipping meals can cause larger spikes when you eventually eat.

Mindful Eating

Focus on eating without distractions. This can help you recognize fullness cues and prevent overeating.
