How to consume english indian pesarattu, idli without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein
Add a side of low-fat yogurt or a boiled egg to your meal. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If possible, opt for whole grain versions of your ingredients. For instance, use brown rice or whole grain flour for making pesarattu to increase fiber content.
Add Non-Starchy Vegetables
Include a serving of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or cucumbers. These can help fill you up without causing a spike in blood sugar.
Eat Smaller Portions
Reduce the serving size of pesarattu and idli. Eating in moderation can prevent a large intake of carbohydrates in one go.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado slices or a teaspoon of olive oil. Healthy fats can slow down the digestion of carbohydrates.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout your meal. Proper hydration helps in the digestion process and can prevent spikes.
Consume with a Fiber-Rich Dip
Pair your pesarattu or idli with a high-fiber chutney made from ingredients like cilantro, mint, or flaxseeds. This can add to the fiber content and slow carbohydrate absorption.
Avoid Sugary Beverages
Skip any sugary drinks or sodas. Opt for water, herbal tea, or other sugar-free beverages to avoid additional sugar intake.
Take a Walk Post-Meal
A 10-15 minute walk after eating can help lower blood sugar levels by enhancing insulin sensitivity and promoting glucose absorption by muscles.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar levels after meals and adjust your portion sizes or ingredient choices as needed to maintain better control.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
