How to consume english kala chana, roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of both kala chana and roti. Smaller portions can help moderate the overall glucose response.

Incorporate High-Fiber Vegetables

Add a generous serving of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your meal. These can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices, a sprinkle of chia seeds, or a drizzle of olive oil. These can help slow digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Whole Grain Roti

Opt for whole grain or multigrain roti instead of regular ones. They are digested more slowly, leading to a steadier increase in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated helps with overall digestion and may help regulate blood sugar levels.

Meal Timing

Try eating smaller, balanced meals more frequently throughout the day rather than large meals to prevent spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your muscles use up some of the blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. This can contribute to better digestion and glucose management.

Monitor Ingredients

Be mindful of any added sugars or high-carb side dishes that may accompany your main meal.
