How to consume Bhel Mix without glucose spikes
Include Protein
Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a handful of chickpeas or some cooked moong dal, to help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like a small amount of chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts) or seeds (flaxseeds, chia seeds) to your Bhel Mix.
Increase Fiber
Mix in more fiber-rich vegetables like cucumber, tomato, and bell peppers. You can also sprinkle some psyllium husk for an extra fiber boost.
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of the Bhel Mix you consume. Smaller portions lead to smaller glucose spikes.
Pre-Meal Hydration
Drink a glass of water 15-20 minutes before eating your Bhel Mix. This can help in moderating your blood sugar levels.
Combine with Leafy Greens
Serve your Bhel Mix with a side of leafy greens like spinach, kale, or lettuce to further slow down glucose absorption.
Choose Low-Sugar Ingredients
Avoid adding sweet chutneys or limit their quantity. Opt for tamarind chutney made with minimal or no added sugar.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew your food well. Eating slowly can help regulate the rate at which glucose enters your bloodstream.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after eating to help your muscles use up some of the glucose.
Monitor Timing
If possible, consume your Bhel Mix as part of a larger meal rather than as a standalone snack to reduce the likelihood of a significant glucose spike.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
