How to consume banana | dosa without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Add a source of protein or healthy fats to your meal, such as a small serving of nuts or seeds, a dollop of yogurt, or a few slices of avocado, to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Include vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli with your meal as they are rich in fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Practice Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the banana or dosa to limit the carbohydrate intake and prevent massive spikes.

Engage in Physical Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light exercise after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

Eat Balanced Meals

Ensure your meals are balanced with carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, spreading out your intake throughout the day.

Consider Whole Grains

If making dosa, consider using whole grain or mixed lentil batters which digest more slowly than refined grains.

Monitor Timing

Avoid eating high-carbohydrate foods on an empty stomach; eating them after a well-balanced meal may help in managing spikes.

Mindful Eating

Chew your food slowly and be mindful during meals to help your body process the food better.

Consult a Healthcare Professional

Seek advice from a healthcare provider or nutritionist to tailor strategies specific to your needs.
