How to consume Homemade - Chana Dal + Ghiya / Lauki (Split Chick Pea + Bottle Gourd Curry) Cooked In Salt, Roti without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the roti and the curry to manage the overall carbohydrate intake.

Add Fiber

Incorporate additional fiber into your meal by adding a side of leafy green vegetables or a small salad, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Whole Grain Roti

Use whole grain or multigrain flour for making roti, as it contains more fiber compared to regular wheat flour.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small portion of healthy fats, such as a few slices of avocado or a handful of nuts, to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils, to provide a more balanced meal and reduce the impact on your blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and reduce the concentration of glucose in the bloodstream.

Eat Slowly

Take time to chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly, which can help in better digestion and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.

Monitor Ingredients

Be mindful of the amount of salt and cooking oil used in the curry to avoid excess calorie and sodium intake.

Mindful Cooking Methods

Consider steaming or boiling the bottle gourd before adding it to the curry to retain its nutritional benefits without added fats.
