How to consume chapati, cooked beets without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein and Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes, and healthy fats like avocado or nuts in your meal to slow down the absorption of glucose.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale to your meal to increase fiber content, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chapati and beets to minimize the carbohydrate load in a single meal.

Use Whole Grain Chapati

Opt for whole grain or multigrain chapati instead of refined flour chapati to help control blood sugar spikes.

Add Vinegar

Consider adding a small amount of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your meal as it may help moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Lemon Juice

Adding a squeeze of lemon juice to your food can potentially help in moderating the spike.

Hydrate Properly

Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help moderate blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly and Mindfully

Slow down and chew thoroughly to enhance digestion and help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Introduce Low-Carb Vegetables

Consider including low-carb vegetables like zucchini, cauliflower, or bell peppers as part of your meal to balance the carbohydrates.

Space Out Carbohydrate Intake

If possible, distribute your carbohydrate intake throughout the day instead of consuming them all in one meal.

Physical Activity Post-Meal

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