How to consume chapati, english bhindi masala without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the total amount of chapati you consume in one meal. This helps minimize the overall intake of carbohydrates.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add a side of high-fiber vegetables like spinach or kale to your meal, which can slow down the absorption of glucose.

Protein Pairing

Include a portion of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils to balance your meal and stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small handful of nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts) to slow digestion and prevent spikes in blood sugar.

Opt for Whole Grain

Choose whole-grain chapati instead of refined flour chapati to improve your meal's nutritional profile and reduce the spike.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water 10-15 minutes before eating. Staying hydrated can help manage blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew food thoroughly and eat slowly, which can aid digestion and reduce the likelihood of a glucose spike.

Monitor Cooking Methods

Ensure that the bhindi (okra) masala is cooked with minimal oil and avoid adding sugar or high-calorie ingredients.

Include Vinegar

Add a splash of vinegar (like apple cider vinegar) to your salad or meal, as it can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Meal Timing

Space out your meals and snacks evenly throughout the day to avoid large fluctuations in blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating techniques such as paying attention to hunger and fullness cues, which can prevent overeating and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
