How to consume Bhel Puri - Indian Puffed Rice Snack without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the amount of Bhel Puri you consume in one sitting to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.
Increase Fiber Content
Add vegetables like cucumber, tomatoes, and bell peppers to your Bhel Puri to increase fiber and slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Protein
Include a source of protein such as boiled chickpeas, lentils, or a small amount of paneer to help moderate the glucose response.
Add Healthy Fats
Sprinkle some nuts or seeds like peanuts, almonds, or flaxseeds into your Bhel Puri to provide healthy fats that can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before consuming Bhel Puri to help with digestion and potentially reduce the speed of sugar absorption.
Opt for Whole-Grain Puffed Rice
If possible, choose whole-grain variants of puffed rice which may have a slightly lower impact on blood sugar.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and enjoy each bite to give your body time to process the food, which may aid in better blood sugar management.
Pre-Meal Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, before eating to help improve insulin sensitivity.
Combine with Leafy Greens
Pair your snack with a side of leafy greens like spinach or kale, which can help balance the meal and reduce the spike.
Monitor Timing
Consider having Bhel Puri as part of a meal rather than a standalone snack to minimize its impact on your blood sugar.
