How to consume Poha - dry homemade poha without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the poha you consume. Smaller portions can help in avoiding large spikes in blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein with your meal, such as boiled eggs or a small serving of paneer. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like nuts or seeds, such as almonds or flaxseeds. These can help in moderating blood sugar spikes.

Add Vegetables

Mix in non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or tomatoes. They add fiber and nutrients while reducing the overall impact on your blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Ensure you drink sufficient water throughout the day. Adequate hydration can support better glucose management.

Incorporate Vinegar

Consider having a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with water before meals. It may help in improving insulin sensitivity.

Walk After Meals

A short walk after eating can help in utilizing the glucose for energy, thereby reducing spikes.

Monitor Timing

Try to consume poha earlier in the day rather than at night when physical activity tends to decrease.

Chew Slowly

Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can help in reducing the speed of digestion, leading to a more gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Consistent Meal Timing

Try to eat at regular intervals to maintain steady blood sugar levels throughout the day.
