How to consume Millet pongal without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of millet pongal to limit the amount of carbohydrates consumed in one sitting.
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Increase Fiber
Mix in non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or bell peppers to increase fiber content, which can help control spikes.
Pair with a Salad
Serve millet pongal with a side salad made of leafy greens and a light vinaigrette to add fiber and nutrients.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after meals to aid digestion and regulate blood sugar.
Practice Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to improve digestion and give your body time to signal fullness.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try eating smaller portions of millet pongal as part of multiple smaller meals throughout the day rather than one large meal.
Include Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar to your meal or have a side of pickled vegetables to potentially improve blood sugar response.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help your body use glucose more effectively.
