How to consume english indian bhakri bread, home made - pithla ( marathi dish), 1/4 bowl of pithla without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the bhakri bread and pithla to limit the carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing glucose levels more effectively.

Fiber Addition

Incorporate more fiber into your meal by including a side of green leafy vegetables or a small salad. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Protein Pairing

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Whole Grains

If possible, make the bhakri bread with whole grain flour or millet flour, which can have a gentler impact on blood glucose compared to refined flour.

Healthy Fats

Include a small portion of healthy fats, such as a few slices of avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds, to help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal to help with digestion and potentially reduce the likelihood of a spike.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process the meal and manage insulin response more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Meal Timing

Try to maintain consistent meal times and avoid skipping meals to keep your blood sugar levels stable throughout the day.

Stress Management

Practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga, as stress can impact blood glucose levels.
