How to consume Chickpea salad without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of the chickpea salad. Eating smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels by limiting the amount of carbohydrates consumed at one time.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add more high-fiber vegetables to your salad, such as spinach, kale, or broccoli. Fiber slows down the digestion of carbohydrates, which can help in reducing glucose spikes.
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of lean protein to your salad, such as grilled chicken breast, tofu, or a boiled egg. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar by slowing the absorption of carbohydrates.
Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocado slices or a small amount of nuts or seeds. Fats can also slow down carbohydrate absorption, aiding in blood sugar management.
Vinegar Dressing
Use a vinegar-based dressing like balsamic or apple cider vinegar. Vinegar has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce the rise in blood sugar after meals.
Timing of Meals
Try to eat your chickpea salad alongside other meals rather than on its own. Combining it with a meal that includes a balance of macronutrients can help mitigate glucose spikes.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, like walking, after consuming your meal. Exercise can improve insulin sensitivity and help muscles absorb more glucose, reducing blood sugar levels.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated can help your kidneys flush out excess sugar more effectively.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully, focusing on chewing thoroughly. This can aid digestion and help your body better manage blood sugar levels.
Regular Monitoring
Keep track of your blood sugar levels to better understand how your body responds to chickpea salads and adjust your approach accordingly.

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