How to consume Daal khichdi without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the daal khichdi to ensure you're not consuming too many carbohydrates at once.

Fiber Addition

Add non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your dish to increase the fiber content, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado slices or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds like chia or flaxseeds. This can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Protein

Include a side of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg to balance the meal and help manage glucose spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help your body process the carbohydrates more effectively.

Slow Eating

Eat your meal slowly to give your body time to regulate blood sugar levels more efficiently.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.

Meal Timing

Try to eat your khichdi as part of a balanced meal rather than alone, and aim to eat it earlier in the day when your metabolism might be more active.

Spice it Up

Add spices like cinnamon or fenugreek to your meal, as they may have properties that help in blood sugar management.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar response to the meal and adjust your portion or meal components accordingly in future meals.
