How to consume Green Tea, Poha without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume a source of protein like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a boiled egg alongside your poha to help moderate glucose spikes.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds (like chia or flaxseeds) to your meal, which can slow down glucose absorption.
Fiber Boost
Include extra fiber by adding vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or grated carrots to your poha. A fiber-rich meal can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of your portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can help manage spikes in glucose levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water or enjoy your green tea without added sweeteners to prevent dehydration, which can affect blood sugar control.
Choose Whole Grains
If possible, make your poha with brown rice flakes instead of white rice flakes for a slower release of carbohydrates.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This practice can lead to better digestion and more stable glucose levels.
Regular Exercise
Engage in regular physical activity, such as a brisk walk after your meal, to help your body use glucose more effectively.
Limit Additives
Avoid adding high-sugar condiments or sauces to your poha, as they can contribute to glucose spikes.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of how your body responds to the meal and make adjustments accordingly, such as reducing the quantity of poha or balancing it with more protein and fiber.
