How to consume fried whole wheat puri or poori bread (indian puffed bread), punjabi chole without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the number of puris or pooris you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can lead to a smaller rise in glucose levels.

Fiber-Rich Sides

Add fiber-rich foods like a small salad with leafy greens or a side of sautéed vegetables. The additional fiber helps slow down the absorption of sugars.

Protein Inclusion

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a small serving of paneer. Protein can help moderate the digestion of carbohydrates.

Use Whole Grains

If possible, make puris or pooris using whole grain flour with added seeds like flaxseed or chia for extra fiber and nutrients.

Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like a few slices of avocado or a handful of nuts to your meal, which can help slow digestion.

Herbal Teas

Drink a cup of herbal tea like green tea or peppermint tea alongside your meal to aid digestion.

Vinegar Addition

Consider adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your chole before serving. The acidity can help lower blood sugar spikes.

Slow Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body more time to process the carbohydrates gradually.

Exercise Post-Meal

Take a short walk after your meal. Light activity can help your body use the glucose more efficiently.

Mindful Combinations

Pair your meal with other low-carb options like a yogurt dip or raita, which can complement the flavors and offer additional protein and probiotics.
