How to consume chapati, english indian cluster beans without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chapati and cluster beans you consume in one meal to minimize glucose spikes.

Add Protein and Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein such as lentils, tofu, or chicken, and healthy fats from sources like avocado or nuts to your meal. These help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Non-Starchy Vegetables

Pair your meal with non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or broccoli to add fiber, which can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

When preparing chapati, use whole wheat or other whole grain flours for added fiber and nutrients.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before, during, and after your meal to aid digestion and potentially reduce the glucose response.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. Eating slowly can improve digestion and help prevent spikes in glucose.

Include Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Add a salad with a vinegar-based dressing or a squeeze of lemon juice to your meal, as the acidity can help lower blood sugar levels.

Post-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as walking, after eating to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try to maintain a consistent eating schedule and avoid eating large meals late at night.

Experiment with Cooking Methods

Prepare cluster beans using methods that require less oil and avoid deep frying. Steaming or sautéing with minimal oil can be good alternatives.
