How to consume cucumber raita without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of cucumber raita you consume in one sitting to reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein with your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils, to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like a small serving of nuts or seeds (almonds, chia seeds) to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Select Whole Grains

Accompany your raita with a small serving of whole grains, such as quinoa or brown rice, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Add fiber-rich foods to your meal, such as leafy greens, bell peppers, or carrots, to support a gradual rise in blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body metabolize sugar more effectively.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help your muscles utilize glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to better understand your body's response and make necessary dietary adjustments.

Cinnamon Addition

Sprinkle a small amount of cinnamon into your raita. Some studies suggest cinnamon may help in improving insulin sensitivity.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food more effectively, which can help in reducing spikes.
