How to consume english indian bhelpuri, tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of bhelpuri. Smaller portions help in minimizing the overall carbohydrate load.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more high-fiber ingredients to your bhelpuri, like chickpeas, lentils, or additional vegetables, which can slow down sugar absorption.

Incorporate Protein

Include a source of protein, such as boiled eggs or grilled chicken, as part of your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

Use puffed brown rice instead of the regular puffed rice in bhelpuri to improve nutrient content and reduce the spike.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as nuts (almonds or walnuts) or seeds (flaxseeds or chia seeds) to your bhelpuri to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Modify Your Tea

Instead of regular sugar, use a natural sweetener with a low risk of spiking blood sugar, and consider reducing the amount of milk or using unsweetened almond or soy milk.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after your meal to help with digestion and moderate post-meal sugar levels.

Chew Slowly and Thoroughly

Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can aid digestion and give your body more time to manage glucose levels effectively.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.

Monitor with a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM)

If possible, use a CGM to track your blood sugar responses to different foods and adjust your diet accordingly.
