How to consume english kala chana, poha without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the serving size of both kala chana and poha to minimize the glucose spike.
Combine with Protein
Add a protein source like boiled eggs, paneer, or tofu to your meal to slow down the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Include a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds to your meal. This can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Increase Fiber Intake
Incorporate high-fiber vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower into your meal. This can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Include Vinegar
Use a small amount of vinegar-based dressing on your poha or have a side salad with vinegar. Acetic acid can help reduce blood sugar levels.
Timed Intervals
Break your meal into smaller portions and consume them at intervals rather than all at once, to avoid a sudden spike.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after your meal to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.
Hydration
Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and slow down the blood sugar rise.
Whole Grains
If possible, replace poha with whole grain alternatives like quinoa or barley, which have a slower release of glucose.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep a food diary and monitor your blood sugar levels to identify specific triggers and make necessary adjustments in your diet.

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.
