How to consume english dal makhani, indian flatbread naan without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the naan. Opt for half a naan or substitute with a smaller serving to lessen the carbohydrate load.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer alongside your meal. This can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a side of healthy fats like avocado or a small serving of nuts. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

Substitute regular naan with whole wheat or multigrain naan to increase fiber intake.

Vegetable Sides

Add a generous serving of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, or cucumber salad. These add fiber and reduce the overall impact on blood sugar.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before eating to help with satiety and potentially reduce the spike.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a 10–15 minute walk post-meal, which can help with glucose regulation.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your meal, which can enhance digestion and regulate the blood sugar response.

Meal Timing

Consider consuming this meal earlier in the day rather than at night, allowing for better metabolism and activity post-meal.
