How to consume indian appam pancake, vegetable curry without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein and Healthy Fats
Add a source of protein or healthy fats to your meal. Try serving the appam and curry with a side of grilled chicken, tofu, or a hard-boiled egg to help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Include fiber-rich vegetables such as green leafy salads, broccoli, or bell peppers. These can be eaten as a side dish to increase fiber intake, which can help moderate glucose spikes.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated helps in the efficient processing of glucose by your body.
Portion Control
Keep an eye on your portion sizes. Instead of having multiple appams, start with one and see how you feel. Smaller portions can help manage glucose levels more effectively.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your muscles use up some of the glucose, potentially preventing spikes.
Choose Whole Grains
If possible, use whole grain or mixed grain flour to prepare the appam, which can help in reducing the likelihood of a glucose spike.
Monitor Your Response
Keep track of how your body responds to the meal and make adjustments as necessary. This could involve checking your glucose levels to see what works best for you.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully, chewing your food thoroughly. This can aid digestion and help you recognize when you're full, preventing overeating.
Include Vinegar
Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your meal or having a small salad with a vinegar-based dressing. Vinegar has properties that can help in moderating glucose spikes.
Meal Timing
Try to eat your meal at a consistent time each day to help regulate your body's glucose processing mechanisms. Regular meal timing can prevent large fluctuations in glucose levels.

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