How to consume indian chole, quinoa (cooked) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the quantity of chole and quinoa to manageable portions. Smaller servings can help in reducing the glucose impact.
Incorporate Non-Starchy Vegetables
Add a side of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers. These are low in carbohydrates and can help balance your meal.
Add Healthy Fats
Include a source of healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small handful of nuts (like almonds or walnuts). Fats can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates.
Protein-Packed Additions
Include a protein source like grilled chicken, paneer, or tofu. Proteins can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water during your meal. Staying well-hydrated can assist in the digestion process and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Chew Thoroughly
Take time to chew your food thoroughly. This can aid in better digestion and slower absorption of carbohydrates.
Pair with a Salad
Enjoy a salad with leafy greens and a light vinaigrette before or alongside your meal to add fiber and nutrients.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and signal when you are full. This can help prevent overeating.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels more effectively than remaining sedentary.
Monitor Consistently
Keep track of your blood glucose levels before and after meals to understand how different foods affect you personally, allowing you to make more informed choices.
