How to consume chai, pastry filled with potatoes and peas (fried) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the size of the pastry and accompany it with a larger portion of vegetables or a side salad to increase fiber intake, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Meal Timing

Try consuming your pastry and chai midway through a meal rather than on an empty stomach. Eating other foods first, especially those with fiber or protein, can help slow down sugar absorption.

Incorporate Protein

Pair your meal with a source of protein, such as a small serving of nuts or yogurt. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing the digestion process.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a source of healthy fats like avocado slices, a handful of almonds, or a drizzle of olive oil on your accompanying salad. Fats can help reduce the rate at which carbohydrates are absorbed.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a serving of non-starchy vegetables, such as leafy greens, cucumber, or bell peppers, to your meal to increase fiber content, helping to regulate blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before and during your meal can aid in digestion and help you feel fuller, potentially reducing the amount of high-carb foods you consume.

Engage in Light Exercise

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating to help manage blood sugar levels effectively.

Mindful Eating

Take your time to eat slowly and savor each bite. This can improve digestion and help you better recognize when you’re full, preventing overeating.

Limit Sugar in Chai

Reduce or eliminate the amount of sugar added to your chai, or explore using a natural, low-calorie sweetener if you need added sweetness.

Choose Whole Grain Alternatives

When possible, opt for snacks or pastries made with whole grain flours instead of refined flours to increase fiber content.
