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

Moderate Portion Size

Start by reducing the portion size of the chai and pastry. Eating smaller amounts can help in managing blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, opt for a pastry made with whole grain flour instead of refined flour. Whole grains digest more slowly and can help in controlling glucose spikes.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein, such as a boiled egg or a handful of nuts, alongside your meal. Protein helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with healthy fats like avocado or a small serving of yogurt. Fats can slow digestion, which may help in reducing glucose spikes.

Drink Unsweetened Chai

Use a sugar substitute or drink chai without added sugars to reduce the overall sugar intake.

Opt for Baked Instead of Fried

Choose a baked version of the pastry instead of fried to lower the calorie content and improve digestion time.

Include Fiber-rich Vegetables

Add a salad or some sautéed greens to your meal. Fiber-rich foods can slow down the digestion process and prevent rapid rises in blood sugar.

Stay Active Post-Meal

Engage in a light walk or some form of gentle activity after eating. Physical activity can help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Hydrate with Water

Drink a glass of water before starting your meal. This can help you feel fuller and may prevent overconsumption of calories.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and focus on enjoying your meal. Mindful eating can help you recognize fullness cues and prevent overeating.
