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

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of kala chana and puri. Smaller portions will lead to a smaller glucose response.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, in your meal to help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts. These can slow the digestion process and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber

Add more fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or carrots to your meal. Fiber can help to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Use Whole Ingredients

Opt for whole wheat or multigrain flour when making puri to increase the fiber content and reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Incorporate Vinegar

Add a side salad with a dressing containing apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, which may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew thoroughly and eat slowly to give your body more time to process the food.

Walk After Meals

Engage in a short walk or light activity post-meal to help your muscles use up the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Consistently

Keep an eye on your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand how your body reacts and adjust your eating habits accordingly.
