How to consume idli 4 without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by eating a smaller portion of idli to reduce the amount of carbohydrates consumed at one time.
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein, such as a side of yogurt or a boiled egg, to your meal. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like a spoonful of peanut butter or a few slices of avocado alongside your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber
Pair idlis with a fiber-rich vegetable dish, such as sautéed spinach or a green salad, to slow down digestion.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water throughout your meal to aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Use Fermented Ingredients
Prepare idli batter with fermented ingredients, as fermentation can help reduce the impact on blood sugar.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after meals to help your body use glucose more effectively.
Balanced Meals
Ensure overall meal balance by including a mix of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to avoid large spikes.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly, as this can help with better digestion and glucose management.
Monitor Timing
Avoid consuming idlis on an empty stomach or as the first meal of the day; instead, eat them as part of a larger, balanced meal.
