How to consume 14" pepperoni pizza | beer without glucose spikes
Eat Smaller Portions
Instead of consuming the entire 14" pizza and multiple beers, try to have a smaller portion of pizza and limit alcohol intake.
Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods
Include a side salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The fiber can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Choose Whole-Grain Crust
If available, opt for a whole-grain pizza crust. Whole grains digest more slowly, preventing rapid glucose spikes.
Add Protein
Top your pizza with extra proteins like grilled chicken or tofu. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Drink Water or Sparkling Water
Replace some or all of the beer with water or sparkling water. Alcohol can cause spikes in glucose levels.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat. Eating slowly gives your body more time to process the food and can reduce spikes in blood sugar.
Use Vegetable Toppings
Add more vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, and bell peppers to your pizza. They provide additional nutrients and fiber.
Limit the Cheese
Go easy on the cheese. While delicious, cheese can add extra fat and calories, which can impact glucose levels indirectly.
Opt for Light Beer
If you must have beer, choose a light beer option which generally has fewer carbohydrates.
Check for Low-Sugar Sauce
Choose or request pizza with a tomato sauce that has no added sugars.
Walk After Eating
A short walk after your meal can help lower blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake by your muscles.
Plan Your Meal Timing
Avoid eating late at night. Your body processes food more efficiently earlier in the day.
Hydrate Well
Make sure you drink plenty of water before and during your meal to help with digestion and glucose management.
Avoid Sugary Dips
Skip sugary dipping sauces like BBQ or honey mustard. Opt for healthier alternatives like hummus or a small amount of olive oil.
Monitor Your Glucose
Keep track of your blood glucose levels before and after meals to understand how different foods affect you and make adjustments accordingly.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
