💉 Suggested Bolus

If consumed, consider using a dual-wave or extended bolus to manage the delayed sugar release from jaggery.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Veg)

• Grilled tofu with herbs – Provides a high-protein, low-carb option that complements the crunchy texture of low-carb snacks.
• Avocado salad – Rich in healthy fats and fiber, helping to further stabilize blood sugar levels.

🍽️ Best Paired With (Non Veg)

• Grilled chicken breast – High in protein and low in carbs, supporting stable blood glucose levels.
• Baked salmon with olive oil – Provides omega-3 fatty acids and is low in carbohydrates, ideal for blood sugar management.

🥄 Smart Substitutes

• Almond flour crackers – Lower in carbs and provide a good source of healthy fats, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.
• Flaxseed meal cookies – Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, which can help in managing blood glucose spikes.
• Coconut flakes – Low in carbohydrates and can add a crunchy texture similar to til chikki without the sugar rush.

⏱ Blood Sugar Timeline

• 0–15 min: Minimal impact as low-carb substitutes are used.
• 30–60 min: Stable blood sugar due to the high fiber and healthy fat content in the substitutes.
• 2–3 hr: Continued stable blood glucose levels, preventing late postprandial spikes.

🧠 Lowering Impact Tip

Consume in very small quantities or replace jaggery with a low-carb sweetener.
