How to consume indian appam pancake without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats
Incorporate foods like grilled chicken, tofu, or eggs alongside your appam to balance the meal and slow down sugar absorption.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include a side of sautéed greens, such as spinach or kale, or a fresh salad with cucumbers and tomatoes to increase fiber intake.
Opt for Whole Grains
Instead of traditional appam, try making them with whole grain or multi-grain flour to enhance the fiber content.
Control Portion Size
Limit the portion of appam and complement it with other low-spike foods to prevent a large intake of carbohydrates at once.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as adequate hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Include Nuts or Seeds
Sprinkle some almonds or chia seeds over your meal, as these healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar.
Incorporate Legumes
Add lentils or chickpeas to your meal, either in the form of a dal or salad, to benefit from their blood sugar-stabilizing properties.
Monitor Sugar Content
Be mindful of any sweet accompaniments, like coconut milk or chutneys, and opt for unsweetened versions.
Engage in Light Activity
Take a short walk after your meal to help your body utilize the sugar from the meal more effectively.
Plan Your Meals
If possible, plan your meals to include a balance of macronutrients, ensuring that each meal isn't overly reliant on high carbohydrate foods.
