How to consume english besan chilla, tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the besan chilla and monitor your body's response. Smaller portions can prevent a pronounced spike in glucose levels.

Add Fiber

Incorporate high-fiber foods like a salad or a side of non-starchy vegetables (such as spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers) with your meal. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg, to your meal. Protein helps in slowing down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado slices or a handful of nuts (like almonds or walnuts) to your meal to slow glucose absorption.

Tea Alternatives

Consider drinking tea without sugar or use a natural sweetener like stevia. Alternatively, you can try herbal teas that don't require sugar.

Replace Sugar

If you prefer having some sweetness, use a sugar substitute in your milk tea to reduce the impact on blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to aid digestion and give your body time to regulate glucose levels more effectively.

Pre-Meal Preparation

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk or gentle stretching, before your meal to improve insulin sensitivity.

Hydration

Ensure you are well-hydrated by drinking a glass of water before your meal, which may help in moderating glucose spikes.

Meal Timing

Have your besan chilla and tea earlier in the day rather than at night, as this can help your body process the glucose more efficiently with the day's activity.
