How to consume 3 Minute Breakfast Poha without glucose spikes

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein such as a boiled egg, a handful of nuts, or a spoonful of Greek yogurt to the meal. Protein can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Mix in some healthy fats like avocado slices or a sprinkle of chia seeds. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Enhance your poha with fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli. These can help slow the digestion process.

Use Whole Grains

If possible, switch to poha made from brown or red rice flakes which contain more fiber than their white counterparts.

Portion Control

Keep your portion size moderate to prevent excessive glucose spikes. Smaller portions can help maintain steadier blood sugar levels.

Hydrate Wisely

Drink a glass of water before your meal to help with digestion and to aid in moderating blood sugar levels.

Slow Down Eating

Eat slowly and savor your meal. This can improve digestion and help prevent rapid blood sugar spikes.

Add Lemon or Vinegar

Squeeze some lemon juice or add a splash of vinegar over your poha. The acidity can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Combine with a Walk

Take a brisk walk after eating to help your body use up the glucose from your meal more efficiently.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar responses to specific meals and adjust your ingredients or portion sizes accordingly for future meals.
