How to consume english kala chana, plain paratha without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both kala chana and paratha to limit the overall carb intake.

Balanced Plate

Add non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your meal to increase fiber and bulk, which can slow glucose absorption.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or boiled eggs. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or a small amount of olive oil, which can slow the digestion of carbohydrates.

Whole Grains

Switch to whole grain or multigrain paratha instead of plain paratha, as they have a slower release of glucose.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light physical activity like walking for 10-15 minutes before your meal to help improve insulin sensitivity.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before eating to help fill your stomach and potentially reduce food intake.

Spacing Meals

Give ample time between meals to allow your blood sugar levels to stabilize before the next intake.

Meal Timing

Consume your meal earlier in the day when your metabolism is generally more active.

Monitor and Adjust

Continuously monitor your glucose levels and adjust the dietary components based on how your body responds.

Herbs and Spices

Use herbs and spices like cinnamon and turmeric in your cooking, which may help in managing blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal when it is full, preventing overeating.
