How to consume Besan without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start with smaller portions of besan-based foods to minimize the glucose spike.
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or quinoa, to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or nuts to slow down digestion and reduce the spike.
Increase Fiber Intake
Pair besan with high-fiber vegetables, such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers, to aid in reducing the impact on glucose levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help control blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
If including grains in your meal, choose options like barley or bulgur, as they are less likely to cause a spike.
Mind Your Cooking Methods
Avoid frying besan-based foods, as this can increase their impact on glucose levels. Opt for baking or steaming instead.
Add Vinegar or Lemon
Use vinegar-based dressings or squeeze some lemon juice over your meal to potentially reduce the rise in glucose levels.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in light physical activity after meals, such as walking, to help manage blood sugar levels effectively.
Monitor Your Response
Keep track of your blood sugar levels after consuming besan to understand how your body reacts and make necessary adjustments.
