How to consume Poha, Tea With Milk without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of protein such as boiled eggs, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts to your meal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Use Whole Grains
Instead of refined poha, try using a variety made from brown rice or red rice, which can have a more gradual impact on your blood sugar levels.
Add Vegetables
Mix in a variety of vegetables like peas, carrots, spinach, and bell peppers. These add fiber and nutrients, helping to moderate blood sugar spikes.
Healthy Fats
Include a small amount of healthy fats such as a teaspoon of olive oil or avocado. Healthy fats can also slow down the absorption of glucose.
Smaller Portions
Consume smaller portions of poha and tea. Smaller quantities can lead to a smaller glucose spike.
Balanced Meal
Ensure your meal is balanced with a combination of carbohydrates, protein, and fats. This can help in maintaining stable blood glucose levels.
Cinnamon
Add a pinch of cinnamon to your tea. Cinnamon has been known to help in regulating blood sugar levels.
Hydration
Drink a glass of water before eating your meal. This can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Slow Eating
Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. This gives your body more time to process the carbs and release glucose gradually.
Frequent Small Meals
Instead of having large meals, consider eating smaller portions more frequently throughout the day. This can prevent large spikes in blood sugar levels.
Avoid Sugary Additions
Do not add sugar to your tea. If you prefer a sweet taste, consider natural sweeteners like stevia.
Choose the Right Tea
Opt for black or green tea without milk, or use unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk as an alternative to regular milk.

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