How to consume english dal, steamed rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both the dal and steamed rice. Smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Fiber Addition

Include high-fiber vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers in your meal. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Inclusion

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes like chickpeas. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. These fats can slow digestion and prevent quick spikes.

Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain rice or brown rice instead of white rice. Whole grains are digested more slowly, which can help maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Timing and Frequency

Try dividing your meal into smaller portions and eat them at regular intervals rather than consuming everything at once.

Hydration

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

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, allowing your body time to register fullness and prevent overeating.

Pre-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk before your meal to help lower your blood sugar response.

Post-Meal Movement

Go for a gentle walk after eating to facilitate the use of glucose by your muscles, thereby reducing spikes.
