How to consume Coconut Water, Poha without glucose spikes

Opt for Smaller Portions

Reduce the amount of coconut water and poha you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions will help in preventing a large spike.

Balance with Protein

Add a source of protein like a boiled egg, grilled chicken, or tofu with your meal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as a few almonds, walnuts, or avocado. Fats also help slow digestion and moderate blood sugar levels.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small serving of vegetables with poha. Fiber can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water and avoid sweetened beverages with your meal to prevent further spikes in glucose levels.

Choose a Different Base

If you make poha, consider adding more vegetables like peas or spinach, which are low in sugar and can help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after your meal to help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Mind Portion of Coconut Water

Drink coconut water in moderation or dilute it with plain water to reduce its impact on your blood sugar levels.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to better understand how your body reacts to different foods and adjust your diet accordingly.
