How to consume indian homemade - besan puda (gram flour pancake) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the serving size of besan puda to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing glucose levels.
Incorporate Fiber
Add vegetables like spinach, grated zucchini, or bell peppers into the batter to increase fiber content, which can slow down glucose absorption.
Include Protein
Pair the besan puda with a source of protein like yogurt or paneer. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.
Healthy Fats
Cook the besan puda in a small amount of healthy fat, such as olive oil or coconut oil, to enhance satiety and moderate glucose release.
Timing of Meals
Eat the besan puda as part of a balanced meal that includes other macronutrients, rather than consuming it alone, to prevent rapid spikes.
Add a Salad
Serve with a side salad of leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes dressed with lemon juice and olive oil. The fiber and water content in the salad can help moderate glucose levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during the meal. Adequate hydration supports digestion and can help manage blood sugar levels.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body time to process the food and manage glucose release more effectively.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.
Monitor Carbohydrate Intake
Balance your carbohydrate intake throughout the day by reducing other high-carb foods in other meals when consuming besan puda.
