How to consume english medu vada, idli, sambhar without glucose spikes
Combine with Protein
Eat your meal with a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, eggs, or tofu. This helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds. For example, sprinkle some chia seeds or flaxseeds over your sambhar.
Vegetable Intake
Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or cauliflower into your meal. You can add these directly to your sambhar.
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of medu vada and idli. Smaller portions will help to lessen the glucose spike.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light physical activity such as a brisk walk for 15-20 minutes before your meal. This can help improve your body's blood sugar management.
Vinegar Before Meal
Drinking a small amount of apple cider vinegar diluted in water before your meal can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Fiber-Rich Foods
Include fiber-rich foods like lentils, beans, or chickpeas. You can add these to your sambhar or have them on the side.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can aid in the metabolism of carbohydrates.
Eat Slowly
Taking your time to eat and chewing thoroughly can help your digestive system process the meal more efficiently, leading to a more gradual release of glucose.
Timing of Carbs
Eat the medu vada and idli at different times rather than all at once. Spacing out carbohydrate intake can help manage glucose levels better.

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.
