How to consume quick pongal without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the quantity of quick pongal you consume in one sitting to help manage your blood sugar levels.
Protein Addition
Include a source of protein such as boiled eggs, grilled chicken, or tofu to your meal to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add a side of fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your diet, which can help in slowing down digestion and preventing sudden spikes.
Whole Grains
Substitute some of the rice in pongal with whole grains such as quinoa or barley to reduce the carbohydrate load.
Non-Starchy Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, and leafy greens in your meal to add bulk and slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Timing of Meals
Have smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day instead of large, infrequent meals to maintain steady blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body regulate blood sugar levels more effectively.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity such as walking for 15-30 minutes after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.
Monitor Blood Sugar

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
