How to consume Bhujia, Poha without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of Bhujia and Poha. Smaller portions can lead to smaller glucose spikes.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein such as boiled eggs or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts when consuming Bhujia or Poha. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Fiber

Add vegetables to your Poha, such as peas, carrots, or spinach, to increase the fiber content. Fiber can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole grain versions of Poha, if available, as they digest more slowly and reduce spikes in glucose levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a small amount of ghee. Fats can slow the digestion process and result in a slower release of glucose.

Eat Slowly

Practice mindful eating by chewing slowly and savoring each bite, which can help moderate the glucose response.

Hydration

Drink water before your meal. Staying hydrated can sometimes help manage blood sugar levels.

Timing

Consume Poha and Bhujia as part of a balanced meal rather than on their own to help manage glucose levels more effectively.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating these foods and adjust your approach based on your personal response.

Include a Salad

Start your meal with a fresh salad containing leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes to add bulk and manage blood sugar levels.
