How to consume Mango, Poha without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of mango and poha you consume in one sitting. Eating smaller amounts can help mitigate spikes in blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein with your meal, such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts. Protein slows down the digestion and absorption process.

Include Healthy Fats

Pair your meal with healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or almonds. Fats can help lower the overall impact on blood sugar by slowing digestion.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Include foods high in fiber, such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or vegetables like broccoli and spinach, to help slow down sugar absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after meals. Staying hydrated aids in the digestion process and can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. This can help your body use glucose more efficiently.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly, as slower eating can lead to a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels.

Mix with Low-Sugar Fruits

Combine mango with fruits that have a moderate impact on blood sugar, such as berries, to balance the sweetness and reduce spikes.

Limit Added Sugars

Avoid adding extra sugar or sweetened toppings to your poha to prevent unnecessary additional glucose spikes.

Mind Your Timing

Consume mango and poha earlier in the day when your body’s insulin sensitivity might be higher, allowing better glucose management.
