How to consume indian chole, wheat chapati without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of chole and chapati to minimize the overall carbohydrate intake.

Incorporate Fiber

Add a side of leafy greens or a salad with your meal. Foods like spinach, kale, or a mixed greens salad can help slow down glucose absorption.

Protein Addition

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or yogurt. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Healthy Fat

Add healthy fats such as a small serving of avocado or a handful of nuts (almonds or walnuts) to your meal. This can help slow down digestion and the absorption of sugars.

Chapati Alternatives

Consider making chapatis with whole grain flours that are higher in fiber, such as barley or millet, for a slower release of carbohydrates.

Pre-Meal Exercise

Engage in light exercise, such as a brisk walk, before your meal to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce glucose spikes.

Hydration

Drink water throughout your meal to improve digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Chew Thoroughly

Take your time to chew your food well, which aids digestion and can prevent overeating.

Spice It Up

Use spices like cinnamon or fenugreek in your chole, as they may have beneficial effects on blood sugar control.

Meal Timing

Consume your meal at the same time each day to help regulate your body's insulin response and maintain steady blood sugar levels.
