Confirm the pattern by repeating the same portion of plain egg whites on a different day, after an overnight fast, and avoid adding sauces, sweetened drinks, or other foods for 2–3 hours.

Try a smaller serving, such as 1–2 egg whites, and eat slowly; increase only if your glucose response remains stable.

Pair egg whites with non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, mushrooms, zucchini, or leafy salad, plus olive oil or avocado to slow digestion.

Avoid eating egg whites immediately after exercise, poor sleep, acute stress, caffeine, or a prior higher-carbohydrate meal, as these can raise or prolong glucose readings.

Choose whole eggs instead of egg whites for part of the serving if they suit your dietary needs; the yolk adds fat and may produce a steadier response.

Check whether the rise could be a sensor artifact or normal morning hormonal effect by comparing with a finger-stick meter when practical and discussing persistent unexpected rises with a clinician.
