How to consume panipuri, pastry filled with potatoes and peas (fried) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the number of panipuris you consume in one sitting to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Pair with Protein

Consume a protein-rich food like Greek yogurt, a boiled egg, or a handful of nuts alongside your panipuri to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Fiber

Add fiber-rich foods like a small salad or a serving of steamed vegetables before eating panipuri, as fiber can help moderate glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal to help manage hunger and slow down eating.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a brisk walk for about 15 to 30 minutes after eating to help lower your blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite, allowing your body enough time to respond to the food, which can help prevent overeating.

Monitor Carbs

Be mindful of other carbohydrate sources in your day to allow some flexibility for indulging in panipuri without causing a large glucose spike.

Regular Meals

Maintain a routine of regular, balanced meals throughout the day to stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce extreme spikes.

Add Legumes

Include legumes like lentils or chickpeas in your meal, as they are digested slowly and can help manage blood sugar spikes.

Healthy Fat

Incorporate a small amount of healthy fat such as avocado or olive oil in your meal to slow down carbohydrate absorption.
