How to consume Chicken, Quinoa without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Keep the portions of chicken and quinoa moderate. Overeating can trigger higher glucose spikes.
Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include plenty of fiber-rich vegetables with your meal such as broccoli, spinach, and kale. They can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Healthy Fats
Add sources of healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts. Fats can help slow digestion and reduce glucose spikes.
Protein Balance
Ensure your meal is balanced with adequate protein. Besides chicken, you can add legumes or a small serving of tofu to enhance the protein content.
Vinegar
Consider adding a splash of vinegar-based dressing to your quinoa salad. Vinegar can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Avoid Sugary Drinks
Drink water, herbal tea, or other non-sugary beverages with your meal. Avoid soft drinks, juices, and sweetened beverages.
Pre-Meal Activities
Engage in light physical activity like a short walk before eating. This can increase insulin sensitivity and help manage glucose levels.
Meal Timing
Try to eat at regular intervals and avoid prolonged periods of fasting which can lead to overeating and higher glucose spikes.
Chew Slowly
Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can aid in digestion and help in the gradual release of glucose.
Whole Grains
Ensure that the quinoa is well cooked but not overcooked to maintain its nutritional benefits and help in managing glucose levels effectively.
Monitor Combinations
Be mindful of what you combine with the chicken and quinoa. Avoid adding high-sugar sauces or dressings that can contribute to glucose spikes.

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.
