How to consume Coconut Chutney, Masala Dosa, Sambhar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the masala dosa and coconut chutney to minimize the glucose spike. Consider sharing a dosa or having a smaller serving.

Balanced Meal

Add a protein source like grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu to your meal. Protein helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Fiber Addition

Incorporate more fiber into your meal by serving a side of leafy greens or a salad. Fiber can help reduce the rate of sugar absorption into the bloodstream.

Whole Grains

If possible, prepare the dosa using whole grain or multigrain batter instead of refined rice batter. Whole grains tend to have a slower rate of digestion.

Mindful Chewing

Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. This can aid digestion and lead to a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and slow down the process of glucose absorption.

Spice Moderation

While spices can have health benefits, be mindful of the quantities used in the masala filling as they may affect digestion and absorption rates.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a walk, after your meal to help muscles utilize glucose more efficiently.

Healthy Substitutes

Consider substituting some ingredients in the chutney with those having lower sugar content, such as using roasted nuts instead of coconut.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your body's response to the meal and adjust the combinations or timings of eating these foods for better glucose control.
