How to consume english pulav, plain dahi without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the English pulav to minimize the amount of carbohydrates consumed in one sitting.

Add More Fiber

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers into your meal. These will slow down digestion and help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Include Protein

Add a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas to your meal. Protein helps slow the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing the spike in blood sugar.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as a small serving of avocado or a handful of nuts. These fats can help slow the digestion of carbohydrates.

Swap Refined Grains

Replace some of the white rice in your pulav with a whole grain alternative like quinoa or bulgur.

Monitor Dahi Intake

Opt for a smaller portion of plain dahi and consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon, which can help manage blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light exercise, such as a short walk, after consuming your meal to help your body use glucose effectively.

Timing of Meals

Try eating smaller, more frequent meals to prevent large spikes in blood sugar from occurring.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite, which can help you recognize fullness cues and prevent overeating.
