How to consume english besan chilla, mung beans (mature seeds, sprouted) without glucose spikes

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, and zucchini in your besan chilla and mung beans preparation. The fiber content can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. Healthy fats can help moderate glucose levels by slowing digestion.

Include Protein

Pair your meal with a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or cottage cheese. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Use Whole Spices

Add spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander in your cooking. Some spices have properties that can help manage blood sugar levels.

Control Portions

Be mindful of portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can help prevent a significant glucose spike.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly. This can help your body process the food more efficiently and avoid sharp glucose spikes.

Hydrate

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Combine with Low-Sugar Fruits

Have a small serving of low-sugar fruits like berries alongside your meal to add variety and reduce the rate of glucose absorption.

Opt for Fermented Foods

Include a side of fermented foods like yogurt or kimchi. Fermented foods can improve gut health, which in turn can help with blood sugar management.

Cook with Healthy Oils

Use oils like olive oil or coconut oil for cooking instead of butter or other saturated fats. These oils are better for maintaining stable glucose levels.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after your meal. Physical activity can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Timing

Avoid eating large meals late at night. Eating earlier can give your body more time to manage glucose levels before you go to bed.
