How to consume Chai, Dhokla without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a source of protein such as a handful of nuts, plain yogurt, or a boiled egg when consuming chai and dhokla. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Fiber
Incorporate fiber-rich foods like a small serving of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a side salad with leafy greens. Fiber helps to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
If possible, choose dhokla made from whole grains rather than refined grains. Whole grains are absorbed more slowly and can help in maintaining a more stable blood sugar level.
Limit Portion Sizes
Reduce the portion sizes of both chai and dhokla. Smaller portions can cause a less dramatic rise in blood sugar levels.
Drink Water
Have a glass of water before eating. Sometimes thirst can be confused with hunger, and staying hydrated can help control your appetite and slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Healthy Fats
Include a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a few almonds. Fats can further slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Avoid Sweetened Chai
Opt for unsweetened chai or reduce the amount of sugar added to it. Sweeteners can cause rapid increases in blood sugar levels.
Exercise After Eating
Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after eating. Exercise can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food. This can help in preventing a spike by allowing your body to signal when it is full, preventing overeating.
Monitor Blood Sugar
Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating. This can help you understand how your body responds to certain foods and make necessary adjustments.

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