How to consume brown rice, english kala chana without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of brown rice and kala chana you consume in one meal. Smaller portions can help prevent large glucose spikes.

Combine with Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to your meal. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a small serving of nuts, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables, such as spinach, kale, or broccoli, with your meal. These are low in carbohydrates and can help moderate blood sugar changes.

Use Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Dress your meal with vinegar or lemon juice, as the acidity can help lower the impact on your blood sugar.

Cook Rice Al-Dente

Cook brown rice until it is al-dente rather than mushy to reduce its impact on blood sugar.

Stay Active Post-Meal

Engage in light activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body use up some of the glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew and enjoy your meal, which can help improve satiety and reduce the likelihood of overconsumption.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar responses to different meal compositions and adjust your ingredients and cooking methods accordingly.
