How to consume Poha, Whey Protein without glucose spikes

Combine Poha with High-Fiber Vegetables

Adding vegetables like spinach, carrots, and bell peppers can slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Healthy Fats

Cook poha with a small amount of olive oil or add some nuts like almonds or walnuts to reduce the glucose spike.

Add Protein

Incorporate a boiled egg or some tofu into your poha to balance out the carbohydrate content.

Use a Smaller Portion of Poha

Reducing the portion size can help in managing glucose levels more effectively.

Choose a Slower-Digesting Whey Protein

Opt for a whey protein isolate that includes added fiber or slow-digesting carbohydrates.

Drink Water with Your Meal

Staying hydrated can help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a 10-minute walk, before eating to improve your body’s insulin sensitivity.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Take your time to eat your meal, as eating slowly can help keep glucose levels stable.

Include a Side Salad

A small salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes can add extra fiber and nutrients.

Monitor Portion of Whey Protein

Ensure that you are consuming an appropriate portion of whey protein as per your body's requirement.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Adding a sprinkle of cinnamon to your poha or whey protein shake can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
