How to consume english besan chilla, tea without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein such as low-fat yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts alongside your besan chilla and tea. Protein helps to moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices, olive oil, or a small portion of chia seeds into your meal. These fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or tomatoes in your besan chilla. Fiber helps slow the digestion of carbohydrates, reducing spikes.

Opt for Unsweetened Tea

Drink your tea without added sugars or use a natural sweetener like stevia if you need some sweetness. Sugary teas can contribute to glucose spikes.

Eat Smaller Portions

Consider eating a smaller portion of the besan chilla. Reducing the amount can help manage your body's insulin response.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before and during your meal can help slow digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Include a Vinegar-Based Dressing

If you’re having a side salad, use vinegar-based dressings. Vinegar has been shown to help manage blood sugar levels.

Chew Slowly

Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can help your body better handle the carbohydrates you consume, reducing the chance of a spike.

Monitor Timing

Consider the timing of your exercise. Engaging in light physical activity after eating, like a short walk, can help your body use glucose more effectively.

Avoid Starchy Additions

Steer clear of adding starchy sides like bread or potatoes to your meal, as they can contribute to higher glucose levels.
