How to consume coconut chutney, english moong dal chilla without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the coconut chutney and moong dal chilla. Smaller portions can lead to smaller glucose spikes.

Balanced Meals

Pair the chilla and chutney with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of almonds or a boiled egg, to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber Addition

Increase the fiber content of your meal by adding a side of leafy greens or a salad with vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, and bell peppers.

Timing

Consume the meal as part of a well-timed snack rather than a large meal. Eating smaller amounts throughout the day can help maintain more stable blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. It can aid digestion and help you feel full, potentially leading to reduced food intake.

Physical Activity

Engage in light exercise, such as a 15-minute walk after eating, to help your muscles use glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and to recognize when you are full.

Alternate Chutney Ingredients

Consider making chutney with ingredients like mint, coriander, or tomatoes, which can be lower in carbs compared to coconut.

Snack Alternatives

If you're hungry between meals, opt for snacks like carrot sticks, celery, or cherry tomatoes instead of reaching for more chilla.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your glucose levels before and after meals to identify which changes are most effective for you, allowing you to adjust your approach as needed.
