How to consume english besan chilla without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the besan chilla to limit the amount of carbohydrates consumed at one time.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables such as spinach, kale, or grated carrots into the chilla batter to slow down glucose absorption.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein like a side of Greek yogurt or a hard-boiled egg to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Use Complex Carbs

Substitute a portion of besan with whole grain flour like quinoa or buckwheat to incorporate more complex carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of chia seeds to your meal to help reduce spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to register fullness and better manage blood sugar.

Balanced Meal

Ensure your meal includes a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats for a more even energy release.

Monitor Meal Timing

Space out meals and snacks evenly throughout the day to prevent large fluctuations in blood glucose levels.

Include a Salad

Start your meal with a small salad made with leafy greens and a light dressing to increase fiber intake and reduce the impact of the carbohydrates from the chilla.
