How to consume english indian papdi chaat without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of papdi chaat you consume to manage the glucose spike more effectively. Smaller portions will help minimize the impact on blood sugar levels.

Increase Vegetable Content

Add more fiber-rich vegetables to your papdi chaat, such as cucumbers, bell peppers, and tomatoes. The added fiber can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Protein

Include a source of protein, such as chickpeas or boiled lentils, to your chaat. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing the digestion process.

Opt for Whole Grains

Substitute regular papdi with whole-grain or multi-grain versions if available. Whole grains are digested slower, which can help in maintaining steadier blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar response by slowing down digestion.

Choose Non-Starchy Sides

Pair your papdi chaat with a side of non-starchy foods like a leafy green salad to add bulk and fiber to your meal without causing a rapid rise in blood sugar.

Use Less Sugary Toppings and Sauces

Reduce the amount of sweet chutneys and consider using a smaller amount of low-sugar alternatives or make your own with less sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water with your meal. Hydration can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Eat Mindfully

Take your time to eat slowly and enjoy your meal. This can help prevent overeating and allows your body to register fullness before you consume too much.

Regular Physical Activity

Incorporate regular exercise into your routine. Physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity and assist in managing blood sugar levels effectively.
