How to consume Chai, Masala Dosa without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein or healthy fat with your meal. You could add a side of grilled paneer, boiled eggs, or a small serving of unsweetened Greek yogurt.

Increase Fiber Intake

Incorporate more fiber-rich foods into your meal. Consider adding a side salad with leafy greens, cucumber, and tomatoes, or a serving of steamed vegetables like broccoli or spinach.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help slow down digestion and absorption.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the masala dosa and chai to help manage the overall carbohydrate intake.

Spice it Up

Use cinnamon in your chai as it may help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Ingredients

If possible, choose whole grain or mixed grain dosa batter instead of refined ones.

Time Your Meals

Eat your meal slowly and avoid rushing through it, which allows your body to process the carbohydrates more gradually.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Tweak the Chai

If you are adding sugar to your chai, consider reducing the amount or substituting with a natural sweetener.

Pre-Meal Snack

Consider a small pre-meal snack with a low impact on glucose levels, such as a handful of almonds or a piece of cheese, to buffer the spike.
