Health Goals Suitability

Weight Loss

At just 39.5 kcal per serving, this is an excellent choice for weight management.

Diabetes

With a low glycemic index of 50, this recipe supports stable blood sugar levels. The 2.3g fiber further slows glucose absorption.

Muscle Gain

Low protein content (1.9g per serving) — not sufficient alone for muscle building. Combine with high-protein sides like paneer, eggs, chicken, dal, or a protein shake to reach 25-30g protein per meal.

Heart Health

Zero cholesterol and low saturated fat (0.2g) make this heart-friendly. Contains heart-healthy fats. Low sodium content is ideal for blood pressure management.

PCOS

Low GI (50) with 2.3g fiber supports insulin sensitivity — key for PCOS management.

Thyroid

No goitrogenic ingredients — generally safe for thyroid conditions.

Portion Guidance

Weight Loss

1 Small Cup (~100.1g). A light, kcal-friendly portion. Pair with roti or salad for a complete meal under 300 kcal.

Muscle Gain

1 Small Cup (~100.1g) plus a protein-rich addition (100g paneer, 2 eggs, or 1 cup dal) to hit 25-30g protein per meal.

Diabetes

1 Small Cup (~100.1g). Pair with whole wheat roti (not rice) to lower glycemic load. Eat protein and fiber portions first, carbs last.

General

1 Small Cup (~100.1g) provides a balanced portion. Adjust based on your daily kcal target — track accurately in the Hint app.

Recipe Modifications

Boost protein

Add 50g paneer, a boiled egg, or a side of sprouted moong dal. Stirring in 1 tbsp of peanut butter also adds 4g protein.

Meal prep friendly

Mixed sprouts beetroot salad stores well for 2-3 days refrigerated. Reheat on stovetop for best texture. Prepare ingredients in advance for quick weeknight cooking.

Common Mistakes

Using too much oil or ghee

Why it matters: Excess oil can double the calorie content without adding nutritional value.

Fix: Measure oil with a tablespoon instead of pouring freely. 1 tbsp = 120 kcal.

Not measuring serving size

Why it matters: The nutrition values are for 1 standard serving. Eating 2-3x the serving means 2-3x the kcal (79.1-118.6 kcal).

Fix: Use the Hint app to scan and log the exact portion you eat for accurate tracking.
