How to consume dosa, english indian filter coffee without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of dosa to help manage the spike in glucose levels. Eating smaller quantities can mitigate the impact on blood sugar.

Balanced Ingredients

Add protein-rich ingredients like lentils or chickpeas to the dosa batter. Protein can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Add Fiber

Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables such as spinach, kale, or grated carrots into the dosa filling. Fiber can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of olive oil in your meal. This can help slow digestion and reduce glucose spikes.

Whole Grain Options

If possible, opt for dosas made from whole grains like brown rice or use a mix of millet flour for the batter. Whole grains have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.

Coffee Modifications

For your filter coffee, consider using almond milk or coconut milk instead of regular milk. These have fewer carbohydrates and can help control blood sugar spikes.

Sweetener Alternatives

If you're adding sugar to your coffee, try using a small amount of a natural sweetener like stevia or monk fruit, which have minimal impact on blood sugar.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help manage blood glucose levels by improving circulation and metabolism.

Timing of Meals

Try to have a balanced meal with dosa and coffee in the morning or midday when your metabolism is more active, to help your body process the carbohydrates more efficiently.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. Mindful eating can help you better manage your glucose levels by allowing your body to properly gauge its response to the food.
