How to consume chapati, english chana dal without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of chapati and chana dal to limit carbohydrate intake and help manage blood sugar levels.
Combine with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Pair your meal with fiber-rich vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or kale, which can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Include a source of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to help stabilize blood sugar levels and keep you full longer.
Incorporate Protein
Add a lean protein source such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to your meal. Protein can help in moderating the rise in blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and potentially reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes.
Engage in Light Physical Activity
Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after your meal to help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.
Experiment with Timing
Consider having chapati and chana dal meals earlier in the day when your body might be more efficient at processing carbohydrates.
Monitor Meal Frequency
Instead of large meals, try eating smaller, more frequent meals to help maintain steady blood sugar levels throughout the day.
Be Mindful of Cooking Methods
Avoid frying or adding excessive oils to your chapati and chana dal. Opt for steaming or boiling as healthier cooking methods.
Consider Whole Grains
If possible, use whole grain flour for your chapati to increase fiber content and potentially reduce spikes in blood sugar.
