How to consume Cooked Spinach (From Fresh), Roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the roti and cooked spinach. Smaller portions will generally lead to smaller glucose spikes.

Add Protein

Pair your meal with a source of protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes (e.g., lentils or chickpeas). Proteins can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. These fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.

Increase Fiber Intake

Include more fiber-rich foods like non-starchy vegetables (e.g., broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or asparagus) in your meal. Fiber can help slow down digestion and the release of sugars into the bloodstream.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before and during your meal can help with digestion and may aid in moderating blood sugar fluctuations.

Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your meal can help reduce blood sugar spikes by improving insulin sensitivity.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Eating slowly and chewing your food thoroughly can promote better digestion and help prevent sharp spikes in blood sugar.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity after eating, such as a brisk walk. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of how different foods affect your blood sugar levels, and make adjustments as necessary. This will help you personalize your diet to better manage glucose spikes.
