How to consume english dal makhani, roti, white rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion sizes of dal makhani, roti, and white rice. Smaller portions can lead to a smaller glucose response.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain or multigrain roti instead of regular roti as they tend to cause a slower rise in blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers in your meal to help slow down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado or nuts to your meal, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Limit White Rice

Replace white rice with alternatives like quinoa or brown rice in moderate amounts.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal when you are full, which can prevent overeating and consequent glucose spikes.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activities like a short walk post-meal to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of your body's response to these changes and adjust your meal planning accordingly to find the best balance for your blood sugar control.
