How to consume Green Tea, Poha without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the serving size of poha to limit carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing blood sugar levels.
Include Protein
Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a boiled egg, a small portion of tofu, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts, to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Fiber
Incorporate extra vegetables like spinach, carrots, or bell peppers into your poha. Fiber can help delay the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Combine with Healthy Fats
Include a small serving of healthy fats, such as avocado or a sprinkle of chia seeds, which can help moderate the rise in blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after meals, as staying hydrated can aid in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
Watch Your Timing
Consider having green tea before eating poha, as consuming liquids before meals may help you feel full faster and can lead to reduced food intake.
Mind Your Cooking Method
Prepare poha with minimal oil and choose healthier oils like olive or canola oil to avoid unnecessary calories that can spike glucose levels.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after meals to help lower blood sugar levels more effectively.
Monitor Ingredients
Use less sugar in the preparation of poha or opt for natural sweeteners like stevia if desired.
Consider Fermented Foods
Include a side of fermented foods such as yogurt or a small serving of kimchi, which can promote a healthy gut and potentially aid in blood sugar regulation.

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