How to consume english medu vada, idli, sambar without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the quantity of medu vada and idli you consume at a single meal. Smaller portions can help prevent large spikes.
Add Protein
Incorporate protein-rich foods such as cottage cheese, tofu, or a small serving of lean chicken. Proteins help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a bit of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or a small amount of olive oil to your meal to slow down digestion and prevent glucose spikes.
Eat Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables like spinach, lettuce, cucumber, or bell peppers. These can help balance the meal and reduce the spike.
Opt for Fenugreek Seeds
Consuming fenugreek seeds either by adding them to your sambar or soaking them in water overnight and drinking the water can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and dilute glucose levels in the bloodstream.
Walk after Meals
A short walk for about 10-15 minutes after eating can help lower blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake by muscle cells.
Use Whole Grains
If you make idlis at home, consider using whole grains or adding ingredients like oats to the batter to make it more fiber-rich.
Mind the Timing
Avoid consuming high-carb foods late at night when your metabolism slows down. Try to have your heaviest meals earlier in the day.
Chew Thoroughly
Take your time to chew food thoroughly, as this aids in better digestion and can prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.
Add Fiber
Consider incorporating fiber-rich foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or psyllium husk into your diet to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

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.
