How to consume indian appam pancake, vegetarian stew without glucose spikes

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a side of Greek yogurt, tofu, or paneer. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds. These can help to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add more fiber-rich vegetables to your stew, such as spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers. Fiber helps to slow the absorption of sugars.

Smaller Portion Sizes

Reduce the portion size of the appam pancake. Eating smaller amounts can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat. Eating slowly can help your body better manage blood sugar spikes.

Pre-Meal Snack

Consider having a small, balanced snack before your meal, such as an apple with almond butter or a handful of nuts. This can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help with the digestion and absorption of food.

Add Lemon Juice

Squeeze some lemon juice over your stew. The acidity can help slow down carbohydrate digestion.

Use Whole Grain Flour

If you are making appam at home, consider using whole grain or mixed grain flour to increase the fiber content.

Exercise After Meals

Take a short walk or engage in light exercise after eating. Physical activity can help reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes.
