How to consume Biryani without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the biryani. Smaller quantities will result in a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli into the biryani. These add fiber and nutrients while helping slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Protein

Add lean protein like chicken, tofu, or paneer to the biryani. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing down the digestion process.

Consume with a Salad

Pair your biryani with a side salad made of leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The fiber in the salad can help moderate the blood sugar response.

Use Brown Rice

Substitute white rice with brown rice to increase the fiber content of the dish, which can aid in reducing the impact on blood sugar.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like a small amount of unsweetened yogurt or a sprinkle of nuts. These can provide satiety and help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Eat Mindfully

Slow down and savor each bite of your meal to give your body time to process the food and manage blood sugar levels better.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk after eating, to help your muscles use the glucose more effectively.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.
