How to consume cooked rice, english indian chana masala without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of the cooked rice. Eating smaller amounts can help moderate your body's glucose response.
Add Fiber
Incorporate high-fiber vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers into your meal. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Protein Inclusion
Add a lean protein source such as grilled chicken, fish, or tofu to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts). These can slow the digestion process, leading to a more gradual release of glucose.
Vinegar or Lemon Juice
Use vinegar or lemon juice in your chana masala or as a dressing. These acidic components can help reduce the glucose spike.
Whole Grains
Consider swapping out some of your white rice for whole grains like quinoa or barley, which have a slower glucose release.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, before eating. This can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce glucose spikes.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Meal Sequencing
Eat your vegetables and proteins first before consuming rice and chana masala. This sequence can lead to a slower rise in blood sugar.
Mindful Eating
Chew your food thoroughly and take your time eating. This can help with better digestion and slower glucose absorption.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
