How to consume Poha, Upma without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of protein to your meal, such as boiled eggs, paneer, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. Protein helps slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include Fiber
Mix in vegetables like peas, carrots, and spinach into your Poha or Upma. Fiber-rich foods can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Use Whole Grains
Opt for whole-grain versions of Poha and Upma ingredients instead of refined ones, as they are digested more slowly.
Portion Control
Eat smaller portions to reduce the overall amount of carbohydrates consumed in one sitting.
Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fat like olive oil or avocado. Fats can slow down the digestion of carbohydrates.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and glucose regulation.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.
Herbs and Spices
Include blood sugar-friendly herbs and spices like cinnamon and fenugreek in your dishes.
Chew Thoroughly
Take your time to chew your food properly, which can help in better digestion and slower absorption of carbohydrates.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar levels and adjust your meal ingredients and portions accordingly to find the best balance for your body.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
