How to consume Besan Chilla without glucose spikes
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, and zucchini into your Besan Chilla batter. These vegetables can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Incorporate Protein Sources
Add a protein source such as Greek yogurt, paneer, or tofu on the side. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Cook your Besan Chilla in a small amount of olive oil or add avocado on the side. Healthy fats can help in moderating blood sugar spikes.
Use Whole Spices and Herbs
Add spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander to your Besan Chilla, which can have beneficial effects on blood sugar regulation.
Hydrate Adequately
Drink plenty of water before and after your meals to aid digestion and improve blood sugar control.
Control Portion Size
Consume a smaller portion of Besan Chilla and pair it with a side of salad or non-starchy vegetables to help balance your meal.
Opt for a Balanced Meal
Combine your Besan Chilla with a small serving of lentils or legumes. The combination can help slow down sugar absorption.
Space Out Meal Timing
Instead of eating a large quantity in one sitting, consider spreading your meals more evenly throughout the day to prevent spikes.
Engage in Light Activity Post-Meal
Go for a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to help manage blood glucose levels more effectively.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood glucose responses to different meal combinations and adjust your ingredients and portion sizes accordingly for optimal control.

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