How to consume Roti, Spinach without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Roti

Opt for whole grain or multi-grain roti instead of refined flour roti, as it contains more fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of lean protein to your meal, such as grilled chicken, tofu, or lentils, to slow down digestion and stabilize blood sugar.

Add Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or nuts, which can help reduce the rate of carbohydrate absorption.

Combine with Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or bell peppers, to increase fiber intake and reduce the overall impact on blood sugar.

Portion Control

Be mindful of portion sizes, especially with the roti, to prevent an excessive intake of carbohydrates at one time.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal, as staying hydrated can assist in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.

Consider Vinegar

Adding a splash of vinegar to your meal or consuming a vinegar-based salad dressing can help reduce the post-meal spike.

Eat Slowly

Chew thoroughly and eat slowly to give your body time to process the food and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, before your meal to improve insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of your blood sugar levels after meals to understand how different combinations affect you and adjust your diet accordingly.
