How to consume Dosa, Uttapam without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of Dosa and Uttapam to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Incorporate more fiber-rich vegetables into your meals. Add vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli to your Dosa or Uttapam batter to slow down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to help manage blood sugar levels.
