How to consume Sambar, White Rice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both sambar and white rice to manage the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help in minimizing glucose spikes.

Fiber Addition

Incorporate high-fiber foods such as lentils or chickpeas into your sambar. These can slow down the absorption of sugars.

Whole Grains

Substitute white rice with alternatives like brown rice, quinoa, or barley, which have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Protein Pairing

Add a source of protein to your meal like grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer. This can help in balancing blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil, which can slow down digestion and the release of glucose.

Vegetable Intake

Add non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your meal. These add volume and nutrients without causing a spike in blood sugar.

Meal Timing

Consider having smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day instead of large meals. This can help in maintaining steady blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal. Adequate hydration can help in maintaining proper metabolic processes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating. This can assist in using up the glucose in your bloodstream.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite, which can help in better digestion and glucose regulation.
