How to consume Biryani without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Opt for smaller portions of Biryani to reduce the overall intake of carbohydrates, which can help in managing glucose levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate lean protein sources like grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes to your meal. Protein can help slow down the digestion process and prevent rapid glucose spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado slices, nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your Biryani. This can further slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Vegetable Addition

Mix in non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli. These can increase fiber content and help in regulating blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Use Whole Grains

If possible, prepare or choose Biryani made with brown rice or other whole grains, which contain more fiber compared to white rice.

Be Mindful of Sauces

Limit sugary sauces or side dishes that may accompany Biryani, as they can contribute to glucose spikes.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a walk, after eating, which can help in utilizing some of the glucose and reduce post-meal spikes.

Slow Eating

Eat your meal slowly and savor each bite, as it can help with better digestion and reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating Biryani and adjust your dietary choices based on how your body responds.
