How to consume Homemade - Daal Chawal (Red Lentil With Rice) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of rice in your meal. Increasing the proportion of lentils to rice can help manage glucose levels.
Add Vegetables
Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli. These can add fiber and nutrients to your meal, helping slow down digestion.
Use Brown Rice
Opt for brown rice or a mix of brown and white rice. The additional fiber will help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Protein
Add a source of lean protein, such as chicken or tofu, to your meal. Protein can help moderate blood sugar responses.
Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as a small amount of olive oil or avocado. These fats can slow carbohydrate absorption.
Cook Rice Al Dente
Cook rice until it's only just tender. Less cooking can result in a slower digestion process.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help control glucose spikes.
Vinegar
Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your meal. It has properties that can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Exercise
Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after eating to help your body manage blood sugar levels better.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully. Chewing thoroughly can aid in better digestion and prevent overeating.
