How to consume Tea With Milk And Sugar, Upma without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of both the tea and upma to minimize the amount of sugar and carbohydrates consumed.

Choose Whole Grains

If possible, prepare upma using whole grain or millets instead of refined semolina to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like boiled eggs, nuts, or a small serving of low-fat yogurt with your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your breakfast to help slow down the digestion and absorption of sugars.

Use a Sugar Substitute

Replace regular sugar in your tea with a natural sweetener like stevia or erythritol to reduce sugar intake.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add vegetables such as peas, carrots, or bell peppers to your upma. Include a side of fresh fruits like berries or an apple to increase fiber and slow down glucose absorption.

Hydration

Drink a glass of water before eating to help with digestion and to feel fuller, which can help reduce the urge to overeat.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity such as a brisk walk for 10-15 minutes after your meal to help your body use up the glucose.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor each bite to give your body time to signal when it is full, preventing overeating.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels and adjust your meal composition and portion sizes accordingly to find what works best for you.
