How to consume english peanut chutney, idli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of idli and peanut chutney to limit the carbohydrate intake and overall impact on blood sugar levels.

Protein Addition

Include a source of protein like boiled eggs or a small serving of Greek yogurt with your meal, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Add fiber-rich foods such as sautéed spinach or a mixed vegetable salad to your meal. Fiber helps slow down digestion and sugar absorption.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like a few slices of avocado or a sprinkle of flaxseeds, as they can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Timing of Meals

Consider having the idli and chutney as part of a balanced breakfast or lunch, rather than dinner, to give your body more time to process the carbohydrates.

Hydration

Drink water or a non-sugary beverage alongside your meal to aid digestion and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Regularly check your blood sugar levels to better understand how different foods affect you and make necessary adjustments.

Alternative Ingredients

Experiment with using whole-grain or multi-grain batters for idli to reduce the carbohydrate load.

Balanced Meal Plan

Plan your meals to include a combination of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, which can help maintain a more stable blood sugar level throughout the day.
