How to consume english moong dal chilla, tea with milk and sugar without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the moong dal chilla to lessen the carbohydrate load at one time.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein such as boiled eggs or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts to your meal to slow down glucose absorption.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, use whole grain options or add some rolled oats to your chilla batter to improve the fiber content.

Herbs and Spices

Sprinkle cinnamon on your chilla or tea. Cinnamon has been linked to improved insulin sensitivity.

Use Low-fat or Plant-based Milk

Replace regular milk in your tea with unsweetened almond milk or low-fat milk to reduce sugar content.

Natural Sweeteners

Substitute sugar with natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit extract to lower sugar intake in your tea.

Add Vegetables

Mix in some non-starchy vegetables like spinach or grated zucchini into your chilla to increase fiber and nutrients.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to help with digestion and reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Consume your meal slowly and chew thoroughly to aid digestion and modulate glucose response.

Physical Activity

Incorporate a short walk or some light exercise after your meal to help utilize glucose more effectively.
