How to consume english masoor dal without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers in your meal. These vegetables help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate sources of healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or nuts. These fats can help moderate the spike in glucose levels.
Control Portion Size
Keep an eye on the amount of masoor dal you consume. Smaller portions can reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar.
Combine with Protein
Add lean proteins such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to your meal. Protein helps to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Eat Whole Grains
If you’re having masoor dal with rice, opt for whole grain or brown rice instead of white rice, as they are absorbed more slowly.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal. Proper hydration aids in digestion and can help manage blood sugar levels.
Include Legumes
Mix masoor dal with other legumes like chickpeas or black beans. Variety in legumes can offer different rates of digestion and absorption.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat meals at regular intervals to maintain more stable blood glucose levels throughout the day.
Chew Thoroughly and Eat Slowly
Eating slowly and chewing your food well can aid in better digestion and slower glucose absorption.
Add Lemon or Vinegar
Acidic foods like lemon juice or apple cider vinegar can slow down the digestion of carbohydrates, leading to a smaller glucose spike.

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