How to consume cooked rice, english kala chana without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of cooked rice and kala chana to help manage the glucose spike. Smaller servings can lead to lower blood sugar levels.
Combine with Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair your meal with high-fiber foods like non-starchy vegetables (e.g., broccoli, spinach, and bell peppers) to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add sources of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil to your meal. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Protein
Incorporate lean protein sources like chicken breast, tofu, or fish. Protein can help slow the digestion of carbohydrates and reduce glucose spikes.
Cook Rice Al Dente
Cook rice until it is just tender rather than soft and mushy. This can help reduce the rapid rise in blood sugar levels.
Opt for Basmati or Brown Rice
Choose basmati or brown rice over white rice as they typically have a slower impact on blood sugar.
Mix Grains
Combine rice with other low-impact grains like quinoa or barley to create a balanced carbohydrate profile.
Use Vinegar or Lemon Juice
Adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal can help moderate blood sugar increases.
Eat in Order
Start your meal with vegetables and protein before consuming rice and kala chana. This can slow down glucose absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help manage blood sugar levels.
Monitor Meal Timing
Avoid eating large portions of rice and kala chana late in the evening. Eating when you are more active can help your body better manage blood sugar levels.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.

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.
