How to consume Wheat Upma without glucose spikes

Incorporate More Fiber

Add more fiber-rich vegetables to your wheat upma. Options include spinach, bell peppers, and broccoli, which can slow down the absorption of glucose.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats like a small amount of olive oil, avocado, or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds. This can help moderate blood sugar levels post-meal.

Protein Addition

Include a protein source such as boiled eggs, chickpeas, or paneer. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of wheat upma and balance your plate with other low-impact foods, like a side salad or a bowl of lentil soup.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout your meal. Adequate hydration can influence the way your body processes carbohydrates.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your body use glucose more effectively.

Use Whole Grains

Ensure that the wheat used is whole grain, as it can have a more gradual impact on blood sugar levels.

Add a Squeeze of Lemon

Citrus can lower the meal's impact on blood sugar. Add a fresh squeeze of lemon juice to your upma.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to allow your body time to process the food and help prevent a spike in glucose.

Monitor Ingredients

Avoid adding high-sugar or processed ingredients. Stick with fresh, natural components to keep the meal wholesome.
