How to consume english vada, idli without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a protein source like grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu alongside your meal. Proteins slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. Fats also slow carbohydrate digestion.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli to your plate. Fiber helps to moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Complex Carbohydrates
Opt for whole grains such as quinoa, barley, or bulgur instead of refined grains. These release glucose more gradually.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and regulate blood sugar levels.
Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of the vada and idli to limit the amount of carbohydrate intake in one sitting.
Incorporate Legumes
Add lentils, chickpeas, or black beans to your meal. They are rich in protein, fiber, and slow-digesting carbohydrates.
Have a Balanced Breakfast
If you're eating these items for breakfast, ensure your breakfast includes other low-carb options like eggs or Greek yogurt.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light exercise like walking or yoga before your meal. Physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to hunger and fullness cues. Eating too quickly can lead to overeating and larger spikes.

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