How to consume black tea, croissant without glucose spikes
Add Protein and Healthy Fats
Alongside your croissant, include a source of protein like a boiled egg or Greek yogurt, and a small serving of healthy fats, such as a handful of almonds or a slice of avocado. This can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.
Opt for Whole Grain Alternatives
If possible, choose a whole grain or multi-grain croissant instead of a regular one. Whole grains have a slower digestion rate.
Incorporate Fiber
Add fiber-rich foods to your meal, such as a small serving of berries, chia seeds, or a side salad with leafy greens. Fiber helps to slow down the breakdown of carbohydrates.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a leisurely walk, after eating. Exercise can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently.
Smaller Portions
Consider eating a smaller portion of the croissant or splitting it into two servings to consume over a longer period.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on your croissant or add it to your black tea. Some studies suggest that cinnamon can help improve insulin sensitivity.
Avoid Sugary Add-Ons
Skip any added jams, syrups, or sweeteners that can contribute to a higher glucose spike.
Eat Mindfully
Take your time to eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This can help your body better regulate blood sugar levels.
Regular Monitoring
Keep an eye on your blood sugar 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.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
