How to consume indian chole, quinoa (cooked) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chole and quinoa to smaller, more manageable servings.

Include Lean Proteins

Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or cottage cheese (paneer) to your meal to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, broccoli, or cauliflower into your meal to increase fiber content and moderate glucose absorption.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. Small amounts of olive oil or coconut oil can also be beneficial.

Pre-Meal Salad

Start your meal with a salad made of leafy greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, and a light vinaigrette. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Avoid Sugary Beverages

Skip sugary drinks and opt for water, herbal teas, or unsweetened beverages to avoid additional sugar spikes.

Balanced Meal Timing

Spread out your meals and snacks throughout the day to avoid large spikes and keep your blood sugar more stable.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, like walking, for 10-15 minutes after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body process and regulate glucose levels more efficiently.
