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 poori to minimize the overall carbohydrate intake.
Fiber-Rich Foods
Include more fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or kale alongside your meal. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of glucose.
Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. Healthy fats can help slow the digestion process and reduce glucose spikes.
Protein Addition
Incorporate lean protein sources like grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Pre-Meal Snack
Consider having a small, balanced snack like a handful of almonds or a small piece of cheese before your main meal. This can help moderate the blood sugar response.
Cooking Methods
Instead of frying, try baking or steaming the poori to reduce the amount of fat, which can impact glucose levels.
Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar to your meal, like in a salad dressing. Vinegar has been shown to help moderate post-meal blood sugar levels.
Whole Grains
Opt for whole wheat or other whole grain versions of poori, which have a slower release of glucose compared to refined grains.
Eat Slowly
Take your time eating your meal. Eating slowly can help your body better manage blood sugar levels.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help with digestion and glucose regulation.

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