Health Impact: Curd has a low glycemic index and load, which helps in stabilizing blood sugar levels. The combination of protein and fat in curd slows down the digestion process, leading to a gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream. This can help in preventing blood sugar spikes.
💉 Suggested Bolus
Consider pre-bolusing insulin 15-20 minutes before consuming curd to match the digestion and absorption rate.
