How to consume Homemade Poha - Poha without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Eat smaller portions of Poha to help manage glucose levels, allowing your body to process the carbohydrates more effectively.
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein such as boiled eggs, paneer, or tofu in your meal. Proteins can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a few nuts or seeds like almonds or flaxseeds to your Poha. Healthy fats can aid in moderating blood sugar spikes.
Fiber Boost
Increase the fiber content by adding vegetables such as spinach, peas, or grated carrots. Fiber helps slow down digestion and the absorption of sugars.
Hydrate
Drink a glass of water before your meal. This can help you feel fuller faster and may reduce the overall amount of food you consume.
Vinegar Dressing
Consider adding a splash of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to your Poha. Acidity can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body better manage the digestion and absorption of sugars.
Post-Meal Activity
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating. This can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.
Meal Timing
Avoid consuming Poha on an empty stomach or as the first meal of the day. Pair it with other foods or have it as part of a balanced meal.
Monitor Ingredients
Be cautious with the amount of sugar and oil you use while preparing Poha. Reducing these can directly affect the meal's impact on your glucose levels.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
