How to consume coconut chutney, dosa, tomato chutney without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of dosa and chutneys. Smaller portions can lead to smaller glucose spikes.

Fiber Addition

Incorporate a side of leafy greens or a salad with your meal. Foods like spinach, kale, or lettuce can help slow down sugar absorption.

Protein Inclusion

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a small serving of paneer or grilled chicken. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fat Integration

Include healthy fats like a small serving of avocado or a few nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, to slow digestion.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water 15-20 minutes before eating to help with digestion and reduce the speed of glucose absorption.

Mindful Chewing

Slow down and chew your food thoroughly. This helps in better digestion and slower glucose release.

Alternative Flours

Experiment with making dosas using alternative flours such as millet or chickpea flour, which may have a lower impact on blood sugar.

Balanced Meal Timing

Space out your meals to avoid large spikes and give your body time to process the carbohydrates.

Herbal Tea

Consider having a cup of herbal tea, such as cinnamon or ginger tea, after your meal to aid digestion and regulate blood sugar.

Activity Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help manage blood sugar levels.
