How to consume chapati, english okra without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein-Rich Foods
Add a source of protein like grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu to your meal. Protein helps slow the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing glucose spikes.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a small handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. Fats can also help moderate blood sugar levels.
Eat Non-Starchy Vegetables
Add more non-starchy vegetables like spinach, cucumbers, and bell peppers to your meal. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and high in fiber, which can help balance blood sugar levels.
Use Whole Wheat Chapati
Ensure that your chapati is made from whole wheat flour rather than refined flour. Whole wheat has more fiber, which helps in slowing down the absorption of sugars.
Portion Control
Limit the portion size of your chapati. Smaller portions will reduce the overall carbohydrate load, helping to manage glucose levels better.
Add a Fiber Supplement
Consider adding a fiber supplement like psyllium husk to your meal. Fiber can help slow the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Consume Vinegar
A small amount of vinegar, such as adding a spoonful to a salad or consuming it diluted in water before a meal, can help lower blood sugar spikes.
Drink Plenty of Water
Staying well-hydrated helps your body manage glucose levels more effectively. Drink water throughout the day and with your meals.
Opt for Low-Carbohydrate Sides
Choose sides that are low in carbohydrates, like a small serving of Greek yogurt or a salad with a light vinaigrette.
Avoid Sugary Drinks and Desserts
Skip sugary beverages and desserts, as they can cause significant spikes in blood sugar. Instead, opt for water, herbal tea, or a piece of fruit like an apple or a pear.

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