How to consume Coconut Chutney, Idli, Sambar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of idli and coconut chutney to minimize the carbohydrate intake that contributes to glucose spikes.

Protein Addition

Pair your meal with a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or paneer, to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber Inclusion

Add a side salad or a serving of vegetables like spinach or broccoli to increase fiber intake, which can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of healthy fats, such as a few slices of avocado or a handful of nuts, to aid in slowing down digestion and glucose absorption.

Alternative Grain

Substitute traditional rice idli with idli made from millet or quinoa to reduce the rapid increase in blood sugar.

Timing and Frequency

Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to avoid large spikes in blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and glucose management.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help utilize the glucose in your bloodstream effectively.

Cooking Methods

Opt for steaming your idli and using minimal oil in your chutney preparation to reduce added fats and calories.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
