How to consume arepa without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a protein source such as eggs, chicken, or lean meats to your arepa to slow down the digestion process.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, cheese, or a small amount of olive oil. These fats can help to moderate blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber
Fill your arepa with fiber-rich vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or tomatoes. Fiber helps to slow the absorption of sugars.
Opt for Whole Grain Arepas
If possible, choose whole grain arepas or those made with mixed grains that have a lower impact on blood sugar.
Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of the arepa to minimize the carbohydrate intake in one sitting.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew and enjoy your meal, which can help your body to manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Balance with a Salad
Serve your arepa with a side salad that includes leafy greens and non-starchy vegetables.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout your meal to help your body process the carbohydrates in the arepa more efficiently.
Monitor Your Intake
Keep track of how much you are consuming and adjust based on how your body responds.
Use Low-Sugar Fillings
Avoid high-sugar fillings and opt for savory ones like grilled vegetables or lean meats.

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