How to consume South Indian meals without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by moderating your portion sizes. Eating smaller amounts can help manage your glucose levels more effectively.

Balanced Meals

Incorporate a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. For instance, include a side of protein-rich lentils or legumes to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Fiber

Add plenty of fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, okra, or cauliflower to your meal. Fiber helps in slowing down digestion and the absorption of sugar.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole grains such as brown rice or millets (like ragi or jowar) instead of white rice or refined flour options.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before your meal. This can help you feel fuller and reduce the chance of overeating.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as those found in avocados, nuts, or a small amount of ghee, which can help slow down the digestion process.

Spice it Up with Fenugreek

Incorporate fenugreek seeds or leaves into your cooking. They are known to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after meals to help manage any spikes in blood sugar.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to enjoy your meals, chewing thoroughly. This can help in better digestion and absorption of nutrients.

Monitor Carbohydrates

Pay attention to the types of carbohydrates you consume. Opt for complex carbohydrates found in foods like lentils, chickpeas, and beans.
