How to consume Rice and sambar without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the quantity of rice in your meal. Consider using a smaller bowl or plate to help control the serving size.
Choose Brown Rice
Replace white rice with brown rice as it is digested more slowly, leading to a gradual increase in blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Include vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower in your meal. These can be added to the sambar or served as a side dish.
Incorporate Protein
Add protein sources like lentils, chickpeas, or tofu to your sambar. Protein helps slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Healthy Fats
Include a small amount of healthy fats like avocados, nuts, or seeds in your meal. These can be sprinkled over the sambar or added as a side.
Eat Slowly
Take your time while eating. Chewing food thoroughly can help reduce the speed of digestion and absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before your meal to help with digestion and control appetite.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Monitor Food Combinations
Pair rice and sambar with foods that have slower absorption rates to balance the overall impact on blood sugar.
Mindful Eating
Pay attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues to avoid overeating.
