How to consume chai, kanda poha without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of kanda poha and chai to limit the intake of carbohydrates.
Protein Addition
Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a boiled egg or some Greek yogurt, which can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Fiber-Rich Foods
Include more fiber in your meal by adding vegetables like spinach or broccoli, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as a few slices of avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds like almonds or flaxseeds to provide satiety and slow down glucose absorption.
Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon into your chai, as it is known to help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before your meal to aid digestion and potentially reduce the appetite for large portions.
Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal fullness and prevent overeating.
Meal Timing
Try to space out your chai and kanda poha from other carbohydrate-rich meals to prevent cumulative spikes.
Adjust Ingredients
Opt for poha made with brown or red rice flakes for a slower glucose release compared to the traditional white rice flakes.
