How to consume english masoor dal, white rice without glucose spikes

Increase Fiber Intake

Incorporate high-fiber foods alongside your meal, such as adding a serving of steamed non-starchy vegetables like broccoli or spinach to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of white rice and masoor dal to balance your meal. Consider using smaller bowls or plates to help manage portion sizes.

Protein Addition

Add a lean protein source to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or cottage cheese. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce spikes.

Healthy Fats Inclusion

Include healthy fats like a small amount of avocado or a sprinkle of nuts/seeds in your meal to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Switch to Whole Grains

Replace white rice with brown rice, quinoa, or bulgur, which are whole grain options that can cause a slower rise in blood sugar levels.

Meal Timing

Avoid eating large carbohydrate-rich meals late in the evening. Try to consume such meals earlier in the day to give your body more time to process them.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time and chew your food well, as slower eating can help moderate the impact on blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after meals to help with digestion and metabolism.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body use up some of the glucose from your meal more efficiently.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to determine how different foods and combinations affect you personally. Adjust your meal planning based on these observations.
