How to consume Idli, Ragi Dosa without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of idli and ragi dosa you consume in one sitting to help manage your overall carbohydrate intake.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein like cottage cheese (paneer), tofu, or a boiled egg to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with healthy fats, such as a small serving of avocado or a few nuts like almonds or walnuts, which can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Vegetables

Enhance your meal with non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli. These are low in carbohydrates and can add fiber, which helps in moderating blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration supports metabolic processes and helps in maintaining blood sugar levels.

Consider Fermentation

Allow the idli and dosa batter to ferment well. Fermentation can lower the carbohydrate content and make the nutrients more bioavailable, thus potentially reducing the glucose spike.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. This practice can help with better digestion and can prevent overeating, which might contribute to higher glucose spikes.

Pre-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like walking, before your meal. This can help prepare your body to manage the carbohydrates in your meal more efficiently.

Post-Meal Movement

Consider a short walk after eating to help with glucose regulation and aid in digestion.

Experiment with Time of Day

Some individuals may find that their body handles certain foods better at different times of the day. Experiment to find the time when your body best manages idli and ragi dosa.
