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

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as boiled eggs or a small serving of grilled chicken, to help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with healthy fats like a small serving of avocado or a handful of nuts, which can help regulate blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or cucumbers as a side dish to increase fiber intake and reduce the rate of glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, use whole grain or brown rice alternatives for dosa batter, which have slower digestion rates compared to refined grains.

Portion Control

Reduce portion sizes of idli and dosa to moderate carbohydrate intake in a single meal.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as staying hydrated can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Timing of Coffee

Have your coffee separately from your meal, or switch to black or green tea, to prevent excessive spikes from added sugars.

Add Fermented Foods

Include a small serving of yogurt or a probiotic-rich food with your meal to support digestion and potential blood sugar benefits.

Increase Fiber

Add a fiber supplement or consume high-fiber foods like flaxseeds or chia seeds to your meal plan.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help enhance glucose uptake by muscles.
