How to consume dosa, pav bhaji without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Keep an eye on the portion sizes of dosa and pav bhaji to avoid excess carbohydrate intake.

Protein Addition

Pair your meal with a source of protein, such as a side of grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Include a salad or a serving of vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or carrots on the side to add fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices, nuts, or seeds to your meal to slow digestion and reduce the glucose spike.

Whole Grain Dosa

Opt for dosa made from whole grains or mixed lentils instead of refined rice to lower the impact on blood sugar.

Slow Cooked Pav Bhaji

Prepare pav bhaji using slow-cooked vegetables and consider replacing some of the potatoes with cauliflower to reduce carbohydrate content.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to promote better digestion and help regulate glucose levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, savoring each bite to give your body time to process the food and help maintain steady glucose levels.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before meals to improve insulin sensitivity and help with glucose uptake.

Post-Meal Walk

Take a walk after your meal to assist with digestion and glucose regulation.
