How to consume english rajma, roti without glucose spikes

Combine with Protein and Fiber

Add a side of mixed salads with plenty of leafy greens or include a portion of grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer. This can help slow down the absorption of glucose.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of avocado or a tablespoon of olive oil dressing on your salad. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to help your body process the carbohydrates more efficiently.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the rajma and roti you consume. Smaller portions can lead to a smaller glucose response.

Choose Whole Grain Roti

Opt for roti made from whole grain or multigrain flour, which digests more slowly compared to refined flour.

Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Incorporate vinegar or lemon juice in your meal or as part of a salad dressing. The acidity can help reduce the rate of digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 15-20 minute walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.

Meal Timing

Ensure you have regular meal timings and avoid skipping meals, as irregular eating can lead to larger glucose spikes.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, which can help your body's natural hormonal responses to manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Monitor Consistently

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to better understand how different foods and actions affect your glucose levels over time.
