How to consume Chai, Dhokla without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chai and dhokla consumed in one sitting to minimize the impact on blood sugar levels.

Choose Whole Grains

When preparing dhokla, opt for whole grain or multigrain flours, which have a slower rate of carbohydrate absorption.

Add Protein and Fiber

Incorporate a source of protein like yogurt or a handful of nuts, and add fiber-rich vegetables such as cucumber or carrots to your meal to help slow down digestion.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before your meal can help you feel fuller and prevent overeating.

Monitor Ingredients

If you are preparing chai, consider reducing the sugar content and using a milk alternative like unsweetened almond or soy milk.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after consuming foods that might cause a spike to help manage blood sugar levels.

Spice it Up

Include spices like cinnamon or fenugreek in your cooking to naturally help control blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and prevent overeating.

Monitor Timing

Avoid consuming chai and dhokla on an empty stomach or late at night when your body is less active.

Frequent Small Meals

Instead of having one large meal, break your food intake into smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to maintain steady blood sugar levels.
