How to consume indian chole, quinoa (cooked) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chole and quinoa to minimize the glucose spike. Smaller servings can help in managing blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Include a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or broccoli to your meal. These can help slow down the digestion process.

Incorporate Protein

Add a serving of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to your meal. Protein can help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil in your meal. Fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water or herbal tea before your meal to help fill you up, which may prevent overeating.

Prebiotic Fiber

Add a side of fermented foods like yogurt or a small serving of sauerkraut to promote gut health, which can positively affect glucose metabolism.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to enhance digestion and absorption, which can lead to more stable blood sugar levels.

Post-Meal Activity

Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after your meal. This can help in utilizing the glucose more effectively.

Herbal Spices

Incorporate spices like cinnamon or fenugreek into your meal, as they can support blood sugar regulation.

Monitor Consistently

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different components of the meal affect you and adjust accordingly for future meals.
