Thepla (1 Piece) and Tea with Milk and Sugar (1 Teacup (6 Fl Oz))

Have a smaller portion of thepla and avoid eating it alone; pair it with paneer, plain Greek yogurt, or eggs to slow the rise.

Replace sweet milk tea with unsweetened tea, or gradually reduce the added sugar to zero; use cinnamon or cardamom for extra flavor.

If milk tea is preferred, use a smaller cup and choose unsweetened milk rather than adding sugar or sweetened creamer.

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables such as cucumber, tomato, spinach, or salad before or alongside the thepla.

Include a small handful of almonds, walnuts, or peanuts with the meal instead of additional thepla.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if appropriate for your health and mobility.
