How to consume Dal, Roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of dal and roti in your meal. Smaller servings can help minimize the glucose spike.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers into your meal. These can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Whole Grain Roti

Opt for whole grain or multigrain roti instead of regular roti. These are absorbed more slowly, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Protein Pairing

Add a source of protein such as grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu to your meal. Protein helps in balancing blood sugar levels by slowing down digestion.

Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds. These can further help in moderating the rise in blood sugar.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and regulate blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body process food more effectively and prevent spikes.

Frequent Small Meals

Instead of having large meals, consider having smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to keep blood sugar levels stable.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light exercise, such as a walk, before eating. Physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Your Levels

Keep track of your glucose levels after meals to determine how your body responds to specific foods and adjust your diet accordingly.
