How to consume Poha and chai without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of your Poha and chai to help manage your glucose levels more effectively.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein to your meal, such as a side of boiled eggs or a handful of nuts, to slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Add Fiber

Enhance your Poha with fiber-rich vegetables like peas, carrots, or spinach. Fiber helps in moderating glucose spikes.

Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats, such as a sprinkle of flaxseeds or a few slices of avocado, to help stabilize your blood sugar.

Limit Sugar in Chai

Reduce or eliminate the sugar in your chai. Consider using a natural sweetener like stevia if you need to add sweetness.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before or during the meal to help with digestion and control blood sugar levels.

Timing of Meals

Space out your meals and snacks to avoid large glucose fluctuations. Try to have smaller, more frequent meals instead of large meals.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk after your meal to help facilitate glucose uptake by your muscles.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and prevent overeating.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your glucose levels after eating Poha and chai to identify patterns and adjust your food choices or portions accordingly.
