How to consume Idli, Sambar, Vada without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of idli, sambar, and vada. Smaller portions can help mitigate large glucose spikes.
Fiber-Rich Sambar
Enhance your sambar by adding more non-starchy vegetables like spinach, carrots, and okra. These vegetables can help slow down glucose absorption.
Protein Addition
Include a protein-rich side dish, such as paneer tikka or grilled chicken, to accompany your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Healthy Fats
Add a small serving of healthy fats like avocados or a handful of nuts to your meal, which can help slow digestion and reduce spikes.
Pre-Meal Hydration
Drink a glass of water or unsweetened herbal tea before starting your meal. This can help control appetite and improve digestion.
Post-Meal Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after eating to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Lentil-Based Options
Replace part of your meal with dishes made from lentils, such as moong dal chilla or masoor dal soup. These alternatives are slowly digested and can help control spikes.
Fermented Foods
Incorporate a small serving of fermented foods like yogurt or kimchi to improve gut health and potentially modulate blood sugar levels.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly. This can improve digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your meals and monitor your blood sugar response. Adjust your meal composition based on what you observe works best for you.

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

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
