How to consume english chana dal, roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of both chana dal and roti to limit carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing glucose spikes.

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your meal with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli. These add fiber and help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats to your meal, such as avocado or a small portion of nuts like almonds or walnuts. This can help slow digestion and reduce spikes.

Protein Addition

Include a protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer to your meal to balance carbohydrate intake, promoting a slower release of glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support optimal metabolic function and aid in the digestion of carbohydrates.

Meal Timing

Consider eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to keep blood sugar levels more stable rather than having large meals.

Mindful Eating

Slow down your eating pace to give your body more time to process the food, which can reduce the degree of glucose spikes.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Limit Refined Carbohydrates

Avoid adding other high-carb foods to your meal, particularly refined sugars or flours, to reduce the overall carbohydrate load.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different portions and combinations affect you, and adjust your eating habits accordingly.
