How to consume Rice Idli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of rice idli you consume to manage the glucose spike more effectively.

Include Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal like a serving of Greek yogurt, a handful of nuts, or a side of paneer to slow down digestion and reduce spikes.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocados, olive oil, or nuts to your meal as they can help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Pair with Vegetables

Eat your rice idli with a generous serving of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers. This adds fiber and helps in slowing down the absorption of sugar.

Mix with Other Flours

Consider mixing the rice batter with lentil flour or chickpea flour to create a more balanced idli with lower impact on glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid in digestion and maintain blood sugar balance.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in a short walk or light exercise before meals to improve your body's insulin sensitivity and help manage glucose spikes.

Herbal Additions

Add spices like cinnamon or fenugreek to your meal, as they are known for helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing

Try eating your idli at a time when your body is more insulin sensitive, such as earlier in the day.

Consistent Meal Timing

Maintain consistent meal timings to help your body better regulate blood sugar levels over time.
