How to consume dosa | poha without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as cottage cheese (paneer), Greek yogurt, or boiled eggs to your meal. This helps slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Include Fiber
Incorporate high-fiber vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli into your dosa or poha. You can add them as fillings or on the side.
Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado slices, nuts, or seeds. These fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of the dosa or poha. Eating smaller amounts can help control the spike.
Pre-Meal Snack
Consider having a small, low-carb snack like a handful of almonds or a small apple before your meal to slow glucose absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Avoid Sugary Condiments
Skip high-sugar chutneys or sauces that can contribute to a glucose spike. Opt for lower-sugar options like mint chutney.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, for about 15-20 minutes after your meal to help your body use up the glucose.
Spice It Up
Use spices like cinnamon or fenugreek seeds in your recipes, as they are known to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Monitor & Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating dosa or poha and adjust your portion sizes, ingredients, or meal timing accordingly.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
