How to consume chapati, english dal without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of chapati and English dal to help limit the amount of carbohydrates consumed at one time.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein in your meal such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes like chickpeas or lentils. Proteins can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. These can help in moderating the blood sugar response.

Include Vegetables

Pair your meal with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower. These can add fiber, which slows down digestion and the release of glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and with your meal, which aids in digestion and can help you feel fuller, potentially reducing the amount of chapati consumed.

Use Whole Grain Flour

If possible, prepare chapati using whole grain or multigrain flour to increase fiber content and reduce the speed of glucose release.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to allow your body time to signal when you are full, which can prevent overeating.

Physical Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after meals to help lower blood sugar levels.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of how your body responds to different foods and adjust your diet accordingly to maintain stable glucose levels.

Meal Timing

Consider spreading your intake of carbohydrates throughout the day rather than consuming a large amount in one sitting.
