How to consume indian chole, quinoa (cooked) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the portion size of the chole and quinoa to prevent excessive carbohydrate intake, which can contribute to glucose spikes.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower to your meal. These can slow digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts to your meal to slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Protein Pairing
Include a protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or paneer to your meal. Protein can help moderate the rise in blood sugar after eating.
Vinegar Addition
Use a splash of vinegar or lemon juice in your chole or quinoa dish. Acidic foods can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Drink Water
Stay hydrated by drinking water before and during your meal, which can help in digestion and maintaining stable glucose levels.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. This can aid in better digestion and help you better gauge your fullness, potentially preventing overeating.
Post-Meal Activity
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help your muscles use up some of the blood sugar.
Monitor Timing
Consider eating your meal earlier in the day when your body's insulin sensitivity might be higher, which can help with better glucose management.
Consistent Meal Schedule
Try to maintain a regular eating schedule to help your body anticipate and manage glucose levels more effectively throughout the day.
