How to consume Rice with dal without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of rice in your meal. Smaller portions can help minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Add More Vegetables

Increase your intake of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, and cauliflower with your meal. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and add fiber, which can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, replace white rice with brown rice or quinoa. These alternatives contain more fiber and are absorbed more slowly by the body.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil to your meal. Fats can help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Lean Protein

Include lean protein sources such as grilled chicken, lentils, or tofu. Protein helps to stabilize blood sugar by slowing carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and to avoid excessive intake of food.

Chew Thoroughly

Eating slowly and chewing your food thoroughly can give your body more time to process the carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.

Balance Your Meal

Make sure your meal is balanced with a good mix of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Add a Salad

Consider eating a salad made with leafy greens before your main meal. This can help fill you up and reduce the amount of rice you eat.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep a close eye on your blood sugar levels to understand how your body responds to different foods and make adjustments accordingly.
