Double Down (KFC) (1 Serving) and Sugar Free Lassi (Amul) (1 Serving)

If by “negative spike” you mean a glucose drop after the meal, confirm it with a glucose meter or CGM and note the timing; recurrent or severe drops should be discussed with a clinician.

Avoid having a Double Down and sweet-tasting drink as your only meal; add a fiber-rich side such as lentils, chickpeas, or a small serving of steel-cut oats to slow the overall glucose response.

Choose plain unsweetened Greek yogurt or unsweetened lassi with chia seeds or walnuts rather than relying on “sugar-free” labeling, which does not guarantee a steadier response.

Include non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, peppers, or salad with the meal to add fiber and volume without a rapid carbohydrate load.

Eat more slowly and avoid taking the meal after a long fast; a smaller, balanced meal pattern can reduce large swings.

If you have shakiness, sweating, confusion, fainting, or a confirmed very low reading, seek urgent medical guidance—especially if you use insulin or glucose-lowering medication.
