How to consume indian appam pancake, vegetable curry without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein and Healthy Fats
Include a side of protein such as grilled chicken, fish, or tofu, and add healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing the spike in blood sugar.
Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods
Add more fiber to your meal by including leafy greens or non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Drink Water or Unsweetened Beverages
Avoid sugary drinks with your meal. Opt for water, herbal tea, or other unsweetened beverages to prevent additional sugar intake.
Take Smaller Portions
Consider eating smaller portions of appam and vegetable curry. Smaller quantities can lead to a lower spike in glucose levels.
Include Lentils or Chickpeas
Add lentils or chickpeas to your curry. These legumes are high in fiber and protein, which can help control glucose spikes.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help with digestion and may contribute to better blood sugar control.
Add a Salad
Start your meal with a salad made of cucumbers, tomatoes, and lettuce to add bulk and fiber to your meal.
Exercise After Eating
Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after your meal. Physical activity can help your body use glucose more effectively.
Monitor Portion of Curry
Ensure the curry is not too heavy on potatoes or other starchy vegetables, as these can rapidly increase sugar levels.
Stay Consistent with Meal Timing
Try to maintain regular meal times to help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
