Atta ki Roti and Glucose Spike: My CGM Result vs My Mom's
Same atta. Same roti. Same dal. My mom and I both wore CGMs and ate the exact same plate — and the glucose curves were nothing alike.
Atta ki roti is the most everyday food in our house. So when my mom and I both wore CGMs and ate the exact same meal, I assumed the curves would look roughly the same.
They didn't.
Same atta, same portion, same dal — two completely different glucose responses. This is the part of metabolic health that most people never see: insulin sensitivity is personal, and the same staple food can be harmless for one person in your family and a problem for another.
If your fasting sugar isn't where you want it, a generic "switch to multigrain" isn't enough. You need to know how your body handles atta. The short below shows the full experiment and the alternative I'd reach for first.
