How to consume Idli, Masala Dosa, Sambar without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of idli and masala dosa to help manage the spike. Smaller portions can lead to a lower glucose response.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add fiber-rich foods like vegetables to your meals. Consider eating a salad or adding a side of sautéed spinach or broccoli to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Protein
Include a protein source such as a boiled egg, paneer, or lentils with your meal. This can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
If possible, choose a version of dosa or idli made with whole grain or mixed lentils, which tend to have a lower impact on glucose levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like nuts or seeds. A small handful of almonds or a sprinkle of chia seeds can help reduce glucose spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before your meal, which can help fill you up and potentially reduce your caloric intake.
Use Spices Wisely
Incorporate spices like cinnamon or fenugreek in your dishes, as they may help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.
Exercise Post-Meal
Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to aid digestion and help regulate glucose levels.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly to give your body time to process the carbohydrates more efficiently.
Monitor Timing
Try to have these meals earlier in the day when your body's insulin sensitivity is higher, which can help manage blood sugar levels better.
