How to consume english indian phulka bread, indian chole without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the amount of phulka bread and chole you consume in one meal. Smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken or tofu, which can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.
Increase Fiber Intake
Include a side salad with leafy greens, cucumber, and tomatoes. Fiber helps in slowing down the digestion and absorption of carbs.
Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado slices or a handful of nuts (almonds, walnuts) to your meal. Fats can slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Choose Whole Grains
If possible, use whole wheat flour for making phulka bread instead of refined flour. Whole grains are digested more slowly.
Drink Water
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water before and during your meal. This can help with digestion and manage blood sugar levels.
Add Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, zucchini, or broccoli alongside your meal. These can help balance your plate and control glucose spikes.
Monitor Timing
Avoid eating large meals late at night. Opt for earlier meal times to give your body enough time to manage glucose levels.
Cinnamon
Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on your chole. Some studies suggest that cinnamon may help improve blood glucose control.
Physical Activity
Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity for about 15-30 minutes after eating. Physical activity can help lower blood glucose levels.
Legume Mix
If making chole, mix it with other legumes such as lentils or black beans which are absorbed more slowly compared to chickpeas alone.
Smaller, Frequent Meals
Instead of having one large meal, consider smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to maintain steady blood sugar levels.

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