How to consume Dosa, Vada without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a serving of protein with your meal, such as yogurt or paneer, to help stabilize blood sugar levels after eating dosa and vada.

Incorporate Fiber

Add fiber-rich foods like vegetables or a side salad to your meal. Consider incorporating spinach, cucumber, or tomatoes to enhance the fiber content.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of dosa and vada to limit carbohydrate intake and avoid a significant spike in blood sugar.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for dosa made with whole grain or mixed lentil batter instead of refined rice batter to slow down digestion and absorption.

Use Healthy Fats

Cook using a small amount of healthy fats like olive oil or ghee, which can help in moderating blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before your meal to aid in digestion and potentially reduce the post-meal glucose spike.

Add Lemon Juice

Drizzle some lemon juice over your dosa or vada to help in slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew and enjoy the meal, which can prevent overeating and help in controlling glucose release.
