How to consume Chai, Masala Dosa without glucose spikes

Balance with Protein and Fiber

Pair your Masala Dosa with a side of protein-rich foods like paneer or lentils, which can help slow down digestion and reduce glucose spikes. Adding a salad with mixed greens and a fiber-rich dressing can also be beneficial.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both the Chai and Masala Dosa. Smaller servings can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Healthy Alternatives

Opt for whole grain or multigrain dosa batter instead of the traditional rice batter. This can help in lowering the overall impact on your blood sugar.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small serving of healthy fats, such as avocado or a handful of nuts, to your meal. This can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Adjust Chai Ingredients

Use unsweetened almond or soy milk for your Chai and limit the amount of added sugar. Consider using natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit in moderation.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Adequate hydration can assist your body in processing the meal more efficiently.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables into your meal. You can add spinach or other leafy greens to the dosa filling, which will increase fiber content.

Slow Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process the meal, which can help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before your meal to increase insulin sensitivity and help your body manage the glucose spike.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your body's response to these changes. Adjust your meal strategies based on your observations to find what works best for you.
