How to consume english lemon rice, idli without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg to your meal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as a small portion of avocado, a few nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil. Fats can also help in leveling out blood sugar spikes.
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of the lemon rice and idli. Instead of having a large serving, opt for a smaller portion to minimize the glucose spike.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers as a side dish. Fiber slows down digestion, which can help manage blood sugar levels.
Drink Water
Ensure you drink ample water before and during your meal. This can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Try Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar to your lemon rice or have a small salad with vinegar-based dressing before your meal. Vinegar can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Space Out Your Meals
Instead of consuming lemon rice and idli in one sitting, consider spacing them out. Have one item now and the other a few hours later to prevent a spike.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, like walking for 10-15 minutes after eating. This can help use up glucose and prevent spikes.
Use Whole Grains
If possible, try replacing regular rice in your lemon rice with a whole-grain alternative like quinoa or brown rice for added fiber and nutrients.
Mindful Eating
Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite and eating slowly. This can help with digestion and prevent overeating.
