How to consume dal, instant white rice without glucose spikes
Combine with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, or spinach to your dal and rice. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Opt for Whole Grains
Replace instant white rice with brown rice or quinoa. These options digest more slowly and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of rice and increase the portion of dal and vegetables. A smaller portion of rice will lead to a smaller glucose spike.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado, nuts, or seeds, to your meal. This can help slow digestion and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.
Choose Lentils Over Split Peas
If possible, choose lentils instead of split peas for your dal. Lentils have a lower impact on blood sugar levels.
Eat Protein-Rich Foods
Pair your meal with a protein source such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lean fish. Protein can help to balance blood sugar levels.
Cook Rice Al Dente
Avoid overcooking rice; cook it al dente. This keeps the starch structure more intact, leading to slower digestion.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. This can help with overall digestion and metabolism.
Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice
Adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal can lower the likelihood of spikes in blood sugar.
Maintain a Balanced Meal
Ensure your meal contains a balance of carbohydrates, protein, and fats to help manage blood sugar levels effectively.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
