How to consume Indian dinner without glucose spikes

Start with a Salad

Begin your meal with a fresh vegetable salad. Include ingredients like lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and carrots to help slow down glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain options like brown rice or whole wheat roti instead of white rice or naan. These have a more gradual impact on blood sugar levels.

Include Protein

Add protein-rich foods to your meal such as grilled chicken, paneer (Indian cottage cheese), lentils, or chickpeas. Protein helps in moderating glucose spikes.

Incorporate Fiber

Include fiber-rich dishes like mixed vegetable curry, okra (bhindi), or spinach (palak). Fiber slows digestion and glucose absorption.

Use Healthy Fats

Cook with healthy fats like olive oil or coconut oil. Adding a few nuts like almonds or walnuts can also help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Avoid Sugary Drinks

Drink water, herbal teas, or other non-sugary beverages instead of sodas or sweetened drinks, which can cause significant glucose spikes.

Limit Starchy Foods

Be mindful of portion sizes when eating starchy foods like potatoes or bread. Instead, focus more on non-starchy vegetables.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Add Spices Wisely

Use spices like turmeric, cinnamon, and fenugreek which have been shown to help in managing blood sugar levels.

Monitor Portions

Keep an eye on portion sizes, especially for high-carbohydrate foods, to prevent overconsumption which can lead to spikes in blood sugar.
