How to consume green smoothie, poha without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the green smoothie and poha to avoid large intake of carbohydrates at once.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein such as a scoop of protein powder in your smoothie or some boiled chickpeas in your poha to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like a small amount of avocado in your smoothie or a sprinkle of nuts or seeds in your poha to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Fiber Boost

Add more fiber to your meal by including ingredients such as ground flaxseeds or chia seeds in your smoothie and adding vegetables like peas or grated carrots to your poha.

Balanced Timing

Consume your green smoothie or poha as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to help mitigate the spike in blood sugar.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and after having your meal to help maintain hydration, which can influence blood sugar control.

Monitor Ingredients

Be mindful of the ingredients used in your smoothie and poha, opting for low-sugar and minimally processed options.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming these meals to help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce the spike.
