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

Portion Control

Reduce the quantity of rice idli you consume. Opt for smaller portions to minimize the intake of carbohydrates that can cause a spike.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein in your meal, such as a boiled egg or a small portion of grilled chicken. Protein helps to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Fiber

Add more fiber-rich vegetables to your sambar, such as spinach, broccoli, and bell peppers. These vegetables can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing down digestion.

Switch to Alternative Grains

Instead of rice idli, consider making idli with millets or quinoa which are lower in carbohydrates and have a slower release of sugars.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices or a handful of nuts (almonds, walnuts) into your meal. Healthy fats can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Drink Water

Drink a glass of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help in the digestion process and can moderate glucose spikes.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body better manage glucose levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after your meal. This can help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Limit added sugar

Ensure that your coconut chutney is made without adding sugars. Natural flavors can be enhanced with spices and herbs instead.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how different foods affect you. This can help you make more informed choices.
