How to consume english indian adai without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the amount of adai you consume in one sitting to minimize the impact on your blood glucose levels.

Protein Addition

Pair your adai with a source of protein like grilled tofu, paneer, or a boiled egg. This can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small handful of nuts. These can also help in slowing the absorption of carbohydrates.

Fiber Boost

Add fiber-rich vegetables to your adai batter, such as spinach, grated carrots, or zucchini. Fiber helps to moderate blood sugar levels.

Non-Starchy Vegetables

Accompany your meal with a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, or a green salad. These have a negligible impact on blood sugar.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help in better digestion and may help in controlling blood sugar spikes.

Balance with Legumes

Include legumes such as chickpeas or lentils in your meal plan throughout the day. They have a stabilizing effect on blood sugar levels.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Consider having a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar diluted in water before your meal. Some studies suggest it may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk for 10-15 minutes after eating to help your body use up some of the glucose.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to understand how different foods affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.
