How to consume Poha and chai without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of poha and opt for smaller servings to prevent a large influx of carbohydrates at once.

Balanced Meal

Add a source of protein or healthy fat to your meal, such as a boiled egg or a small handful of nuts, to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Vegetables

Mix vegetables like peas, carrots, or bell peppers into your poha to increase fiber content and promote slower digestion.

Whole Grains

Use brown rice flakes instead of the regular white rice flakes in poha to increase fiber content, which can help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink water before and after your meal to help manage blood sugar levels and improve digestion.

Chai Adjustments

Reduce added sugar in your chai or use a natural sweetener like stevia to decrease sugar intake.

Timing of Meals

Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day rather than large meals to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help reduce the blood sugar spike.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly, which can help in better digestion and absorption of nutrients.

Pre-Meal Snack

Consider having a small, healthy snack such as a piece of fruit or a few almonds before consuming poha and chai, to help buffer the blood sugar rise.
