How to consume english kala chana, fried whole wheat puri or poori bread (indian puffed bread) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion sizes of kala chana and poori bread. Smaller portions can help minimize glucose spikes while still allowing you to enjoy these foods.

Balanced Meal Composition

Pair kala chana and poori with high-fiber vegetables or salads to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates. Adding vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli can be beneficial.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein with your meal. Options like grilled chicken, tofu, or cottage cheese can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Cooking Methods

Instead of frying poori, try baking or using an air fryer to reduce the oil content, which can help manage glucose levels.

Use Whole Ingredients

Opt for whole wheat flour when making poori to increase the fiber content, which may help in slowing carbohydrate absorption.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Spice and Herb Inclusion

Use spices like cinnamon, fenugreek, or turmeric in your meals, as they may assist in blood sugar control.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal fullness and manage blood sugar levels effectively.

Frequent Monitoring

Regularly check your blood sugar levels to understand how your body responds to different meals and adjust your diet accordingly.
