How to consume Rice Idli, Vada without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of rice idli and vada to minimize the glucose spike.

Protein Pairing

Pair your meal with a protein-rich food like boiled eggs or Greek yogurt to help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Fiber Addition

Include vegetables such as spinach or broccoli as a side dish or in the idli batter to increase fiber intake and slow glucose absorption.

Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of healthy fats like avocados or a handful of nuts to your meal to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Timing of Consumption

Consume rice idli and vada earlier in the day when insulin sensitivity is generally higher.

Hydration

Drink water before your meal to help with digestion and modulate blood sugar spikes.

Pre-Meal Snack

Have a small pre-meal snack that is high in protein or fiber, such as a handful of almonds or an apple with peanut butter.

Fermentation

Use a fermentation process that is longer to prepare idli batter, which can help in reducing the impact on blood sugar.

Alternate Grains

Experiment with using alternate grains like barley or quinoa in the idli batter to slow down the digestion process.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to improve digestion and allow time for your body to signal fullness.
