How to consume english indian filter coffee, idli, masala dosa without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of idli and masala dosa. Smaller portions can help moderate the glucose spike.

Balanced Meal

Pair idli and masala dosa with a source of protein and healthy fats, such as eggs, paneer, or a small serving of nuts. This can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Fiber Addition

Include more fiber-rich foods, like a side of mixed vegetables or a salad, alongside your meal. Fiber can help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Timing

Have a small protein-rich snack like a handful of almonds or a boiled egg before consuming idli, masala dosa, or coffee. This can help in reducing the immediate impact on your glucose levels.

Beverage Adjustment

Consider opting for a reduced sugar version of your Indian filter coffee or use a natural sweetener like stevia.

Fermentation Time

If preparing idli or dosa batter at home, optimize the fermentation time. Longer fermentation can increase beneficial bacteria, which may aid in better digestion and glucose regulation.

Whole Grains

Use whole grain or mixed millet options for making idli and dosa, as they are less likely to cause spikes compared to refined grains.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by chewing food slowly and thoroughly, which can aid in better digestion and potentially moderate glucose responses.

Activity Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal to help with glucose metabolism.

Hydration

Ensure you are well-hydrated by drinking water before and after your meal, which can aid digestion and help manage glucose levels.
