How to consume english medu vada, sambhar without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of medu vada. Smaller portions will result in lower spikes.
Add Protein
Include a source of protein like a boiled egg or a small serving of low-fat yogurt. Protein helps to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair your meal with high-fiber foods such as a small salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Fiber slows digestion and glucose absorption.
Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like a small handful of nuts or avocado slices. Fats also help in moderating glucose spikes.
Hydration
Drink a glass of water before eating. This can help you feel fuller and reduce the quantity of food you eat.
Physical Activity
Take a short walk after your meal. Physical activity helps to lower blood sugar levels.
Vegetable Addition
Add more vegetables to your sambhar, such as okra, spinach, and carrots, to increase fiber intake.
Legumes
Add a small serving of legumes such as chickpeas or lentils to your meal. These take longer to break down.
Whole Grain Options
If possible, choose a whole grain alternative to medu vada or have a smaller piece of whole grain bread to reduce the impact.
Fermented Foods
Include a small portion of fermented foods like a spoonful of kimchi or sauerkraut. These can improve digestion and help in managing blood sugar levels.

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