Indian Paneer Cheese (1 Serving (30g))

Check whether the spike is coming from the full meal rather than paneer alone: test paneer by itself on a separate day, using the same portion and preparation method.

Choose plain, minimally processed paneer and avoid sweetened marinades, creamy sauces with added sugar, and paneer dishes served with sugary chutneys.

Keep the paneer portion moderate and build the meal around non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, cauliflower, okra, broccoli, peppers, or salad.

Replace naan, roti made with refined flour, and white rice with smaller portions of lentils, chickpeas, or cauliflower rice.

Add fiber and acid to the meal, such as a vegetable salad with lemon or vinegar, and avoid sweet drinks, mango lassi, and dessert alongside paneer.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk after eating and note whether meal timing, portion size, or a specific paneer preparation changes your response.
