💉 Suggested Bolus

Consider a smaller bolus due to the low carb content, or potentially no bolus if consumed as part of a mixed meal with other low-carb items.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Veg)

• Paneer Tikka – High in protein and low in carbs, complementing the low glycemic impact of the raita.
• Cauliflower Rice – Provides a filling base with minimal carbs, enhancing glycemic control.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Non Veg)

• Grilled Chicken – Provides a high-protein, low-carb pairing that helps in maintaining stable blood glucose levels.
• Fish Tikka – Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and protein, supporting overall health and blood sugar management.

🥄 Smart Substitutes

• Greek Yogurt – Higher in protein and lower in carbohydrates, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.
• Coconut Yogurt – Dairy-free and lower in carbs, suitable for those managing lactose intolerance alongside diabetes.

⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as it is low in carbohydrates and sugars.
• 30–60 min: Stable blood sugar due to low carb content and presence of fat and protein.
• 2–3 hr: Continued stable blood sugar, with slow digestion helping to prevent spikes.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Use full-fat yogurt to reduce the glycemic impact and add fiber-rich vegetables such as grated cucumber or carrots.
