How to consume english medu vada, tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of medu vada you consume. This will help manage your blood sugar levels by lowering the amount of carbohydrates you are taking in at one time.

Choose Whole Grains

Substitute medu vada with whole grain options like whole-grain toast or a small serving of oats. These are absorbed more slowly and have a gentler impact on blood sugar.

Protein Addition

Include a source of protein such as a small portion of nuts or a boiled egg. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate foods rich in fiber like vegetables or legumes. Adding a side of mixed greens or a small serving of lentils can help reduce the spike by slowing digestion.

Cinnamon

Consider sprinkling a small amount of cinnamon into your tea. Cinnamon is known to help improve insulin sensitivity and may help reduce blood sugar levels.

Limit Sugar in Tea

Reduce the amount of sugar you add to your tea or switch to a natural sweetener like stevia. This will directly reduce the sugar content of your meal.

Milk Substitution

Opt for unsweetened almond milk or another low-carb milk alternative in your tea to reduce carbohydrate intake.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. Physical activity can help your muscles use more glucose, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.

Spread Out Your Meals

Instead of having tea and medu vada together, consider breaking them into two smaller meals spaced out by a couple of hours.

Hydrate

Drink water before and after your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
