How to consume indian chole, wheat chapati without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the chole and chapati you consume. Smaller portions can help mitigate a significant glucose spike.

Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers in your meal. These can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Protein Addition

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of nuts (such as almonds or walnuts) into your meal to slow digestion and reduce spikes.

Whole Grain Chapati

Ensure your chapati is made from whole wheat or even consider adding some oat or barley flour to the dough to increase fiber content.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light exercise, such as walking, for 10-15 minutes before your meal to improve insulin sensitivity.

Lemon Juice

Add a splash of lemon juice or include fresh lemon in a salad as part of your meal. The acidity can help lower post-meal blood sugar spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal to aid digestion and slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process the food more efficiently, which can help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Post-Meal Activity

Go for a short walk after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively and reduce spikes.
