How to consume english besan chilla, milk without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of besan chilla to limit the intake. This helps in managing the overall carbohydrate load.

Add Protein and Fiber

Pair your meal with protein-rich foods such as grilled chicken or tofu, and include fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or a small salad to slow down the absorption of glucose.

Nuts and Seeds

Include a small serving of nuts such as almonds or walnuts with your meal. They provide healthy fats and protein, further moderating blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal, which can help in digestion and slow the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a source of healthy fats, such as a teaspoon of olive oil or a few slices of avocado, to your meal. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, like a walk, after eating to enhance insulin sensitivity and help regulate blood sugar.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to chew thoroughly and enjoy your meal. Eating slowly can help moderate spikes in blood sugar by giving your body more time to process the carbohydrates.

Monitor Timing

Consider consuming the besan chilla earlier in the day or as part of a balanced breakfast, rather than later at night, to make use of increased insulin sensitivity in the morning.

Alternative Milk Options

If possible, switch to unsweetened almond or soy milk, which may have a lesser impact on blood sugar compared to regular milk.
