How to consume chapati, mushroom gravy without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg with your meal. Protein helps slow down the absorption of glucose.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices, olive oil, or a handful of nuts to your meal. These fats can moderate the spike by slowing digestion.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add high-fiber vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or kale to your plate. Fiber helps to slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in better digestion and glucose regulation.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, opt for whole wheat chapati instead of refined flour chapati. Whole grains are digested more slowly.

Portion Control

Limit the number of chapatis you consume in one sitting to avoid a large influx of carbs at once.

Eat Smaller, Frequent Meals

Instead of having large meals, eat smaller portions more frequently throughout the day to keep glucose levels steady.

Include Vinegar

Add a splash of vinegar to your mushroom gravy or have a salad with a vinegar-based dressing. Vinegar can help in reducing blood sugar spikes.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity like walking for 15-20 minutes after your meal to help lower blood sugar levels.

Monitor Carbohydrate Intake

Keep track of the total carbohydrates in your meal to ensure you are not consuming too many at once.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This can help in better digestion and slower absorption of glucose.

Add Lentils or Beans

Mix in a small portion of lentils or beans into your mushroom gravy. They are high in fiber and protein, which helps in reducing glucose spikes.
