How to consume Bhel without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the Bhel. Smaller portions can help in managing glucose levels better.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein in your Bhel, such as roasted chickpeas or boiled eggs. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add ingredients like avocado or a sprinkle of seeds such as flaxseeds or chia seeds. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, use puffed brown rice or quinoa puffs instead of traditional puffed rice to increase fiber content.

Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Add more vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Fiber helps slow down the digestion process.

Lemon Juice

Squeeze fresh lemon juice over your Bhel. The acidity can help modulate blood sugar response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before you eat. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help in better glucose management.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat at a slower pace to give your body time to process the carbohydrates more effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk after eating to help your muscles use some of the glucose.

Monitor Timing

Consider having Bhel as part of a larger meal that includes other low-impact foods, rather than as a standalone snack.
