How to consume Chai, Upma without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of your Chai and Upma to minimize the overall intake of carbohydrates.

Protein Addition

Include a source of protein with your meal, such as a boiled egg or a handful of nuts, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair your meal with high-fiber foods like a small serving of lentils or a side salad with leafy greens, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado slices or a teaspoon of olive oil, to your meal to slow down digestion.

Cinnamon

Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon into your Chai, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar spikes.

Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add non-starchy vegetables like cucumber or tomato slices to your meal for additional fiber and nutrients.

Whole Grains

If preparing Upma, use whole grain options like quinoa or whole wheat instead of refined grains to help control blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help in better digestion and prevent overeating.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to allow your body to properly digest the food and recognize fullness cues.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.
