How to consume chapati, english kala chana without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a small portion of fish to your meal to slow down the digestion and absorption process.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like a small serving of avocado, a handful of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil. These fats can help moderate the blood sugar response.

Increase Fiber Intake

Eat more non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, and bell peppers alongside your meal. The fiber helps to slow glucose absorption.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chapati and kala chana to manage the carbohydrate load more effectively.

Add Vinegar

Include a tablespoon of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, with your meal. It has been shown to help lower blood sugar spikes.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity like walking for 10-15 minutes before your meal. This can improve your body’s insulin sensitivity.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day and during your meal to aid digestion and better manage blood sugar levels.

Meal Timing

Distribute your carbohydrate intake more evenly throughout the day rather than consuming a large quantity at once.

Chew Slowly

Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body better manage glucose absorption.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how different foods and combinations affect you, and adjust accordingly.
