How to consume Daal without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or boiled eggs alongside your daal. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices, nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add a variety of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your dish to provide fiber and reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Control Portion Size

Be mindful of the portion size of daal you consume. Smaller portions can help keep glucose levels in check.

Incorporate Whole Grains

Serve daal with a small portion of whole grains like quinoa or barley, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Hydrate Properly

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and prevent a rapid increase in blood sugar.

Engage in Light Exercise

After eating, take a short walk or engage in light physical activity to help your body process the meal more effectively.

Cook Daal with Fiber-Rich Ingredients

Use ingredients like lentils, chickpeas, or split peas that are naturally high in fiber, which can help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Eat Mindfully

Take your time to chew thoroughly and eat slowly, allowing your body to better regulate insulin and glucose levels.

Monitor Consistently

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how your body reacts to different foods and adjust your diet accordingly.
