How to consume Dosa, Upma without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like eggs or a small portion of paneer alongside your meal. Protein helps to slow down the absorption of glucose in the bloodstream.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. These fats can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Eat Vegetables First

Start your meal with a salad or steamed vegetables. This can help reduce the impact of carbohydrates on your blood sugar.

Incorporate Fiber

Add fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your meal. Fiber helps slow the release of glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal. Adequate hydration can support better glucose management.

Practice Portion Control

Be mindful of your portion sizes for both dosa and upma. Smaller portions can lead to more moderate blood sugar responses.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. This can aid digestion and help your body better manage glucose levels.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal. This can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce spikes.

Monitor Meal Timing

Try to eat at consistent times each day to help regulate your body's glucose response.

Experiment with Ingredients

Consider using whole grain or alternative flours with your dosa and upma recipes, as these can have a lesser impact on your blood sugar levels.
