How to consume Chicken Curry, Chapati without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of both the chicken curry and chapati to manage overall carbohydrate intake.

Increase Protein

Add a side of beans or lentils, such as a small serving of dal, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Fiber

Include a small side salad with leafy greens and other non-starchy vegetables like cucumber and tomatoes to add fiber and reduce glucose spikes.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole wheat chapati instead of refined flour chapati to slow down digestion.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats like a few slices of avocado or a sprinkle of seeds (like chia or flax seeds) which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal, as proper hydration can aid digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly to give your body time to adjust and process the carbohydrates more efficiently.

Balance with Non-Starchy Sides

Pair your meal with roasted or steamed non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, or bell peppers.

Use Whole Spices

Enhance your chicken curry with whole spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric, which can have beneficial effects on blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Go for a short walk after your meal to help your body use glucose more effectively and reduce the spike in blood sugar.
