How to consume chapati, english indian cluster beans without glucose spikes
Add Protein and Healthy Fat
Include a source of protein such as grilled chicken or tofu, and healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts to your meal. These can help slow down the digestion process and reduce the glucose spike.
Eat Non-Starchy Vegetables
Pair your chapati and cluster beans with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, and bell peppers. These vegetables are low in digestible carbohydrates and can help moderate your blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Be mindful of the portion sizes of both the chapati and cluster beans. Eating smaller portions can help in managing blood sugar levels more effectively.
Opt for Whole Grain Chapati
If possible, choose whole grain or multigrain chapati over refined flour chapati. Whole grains have more fiber, which can help in reducing blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can assist with digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Apple Cider Vinegar
Consider adding a small amount of apple cider vinegar to your meal. Some studies suggest that it can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.
Chew Thoroughly and Eat Slowly
Taking your time to chew food thoroughly and eating at a slower pace can help in reducing the rapid spikes in glucose levels.
Exercise Post-Meal
Light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating can help your body utilize glucose more efficiently and reduce spikes.
Use Spices Wisely
Incorporate spices like cinnamon and fenugreek into your meals. These spices have been shown to help with blood sugar control.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar levels regularly to understand how different foods affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
