How to consume chili without glucose spikes
Add High-Fiber Vegetables
Incorporate vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, spinach, or zucchini into your chili. These help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Opt for Whole Grains
If you serve your chili with a side, choose whole grain options like brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice or bread.
Include Beans and Lentils
Add more beans or lentils to your chili. They have a slower impact on blood sugar levels compared to refined grains.
Use Lean Proteins
Choose lean protein sources like chicken breast, turkey, or lean cuts of beef. Protein helps to moderate glucose absorption.
Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado slices or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top of your chili. These fats can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Portion Control
Keep your portion sizes moderate to avoid overloading your system with too many carbohydrates at once.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help with glucose control.
Spice Smartly
Use spices like cinnamon or turmeric in your chili, as they may help in maintaining better blood sugar levels.
Eat Slowly
Chew your food slowly and eat at a moderate pace to help your body better manage glucose absorption.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood glucose levels after eating chili and adjust the ingredients or portion sizes accordingly to find what works best for you.

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