How to consume Dosa, Upma without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of Dosa or Upma you consume to lessen the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Pair with Fiber

Add a side of vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli to your meal. These are high in fiber and can help slow the absorption of glucose.

Include Protein

Incorporate a protein source such as eggs, tofu, or a small serving of Greek yogurt with your meal to stabilize blood sugar.

Healthy Fats Addition

Add healthy fats to your meal by including a small amount of avocado or a few nuts like almonds or walnuts. This can help regulate the release of glucose.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Plan Timing

Opt to consume Dosa or Upma during breakfast or lunch when your body’s metabolism is generally more active, rather than during dinner.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk after your meal to help your muscles use up glucose more efficiently.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to improve digestion and give your body time to process the food without rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to identify how your body reacts, and adjust your dietary habits accordingly.

Consult a Dietitian

Seek advice from a nutritionist to tailor a meal plan that helps in managing blood sugar spikes while allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods.
