How to consume cheese and spinach filled cannelloni without glucose spikes
Include Protein-Rich Sides
Add a portion of lean protein such as grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu with your meal to help slow carbohydrate absorption.
Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or cauliflower. These help to slow down the digestion process.
Opt for Whole Wheat or Whole Grain Cannelloni
Choose whole wheat or whole grain versions of cannelloni instead of regular pasta to add more fiber and reduce the spike in glucose levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil. These can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of your portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can help mitigate the glucose spike.
Drink Plenty of Water
Stay hydrated with water throughout your meal, as it can help in better digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Include a Starter Salad
Begin your meal with a salad that includes leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. This can help fill you up and reduce the amount of higher-carb foods you consume.
Use Lower-Carb Cheese Options
Opt for cheeses that are lower in carbohydrates, such as mozzarella or cheddar, to fill your cannelloni.
Chew Thoroughly and Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly. This practice aids digestion and helps in better blood sugar regulation.
Add a Vinegar-Based Dressing
Use a vinegar-based dressing on your salad. The acetic acid in vinegar has been shown to help manage blood sugar levels.

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