How to consume Cucumber without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein like grilled chicken, turkey slices, or tofu to your cucumber-based meals to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. These can help slow down digestion and moderate blood sugar spikes.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Combine cucumbers with fiber-dense foods like leafy greens, bell peppers, or lentils to enhance digestion stability.
Opt for Whole Grains
Include small portions of whole grains such as quinoa or barley with your meal to provide a steady energy release.
Eat Smaller Portions
Consider consuming cucumbers in smaller quantities alongside other foods to prevent a substantial glucose spike.
Hydrate Adequately
Drink water before and during your meal to aid in digestion and help manage blood glucose levels.
Balance with Non-Starchy Vegetables
Mix cucumbers with vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale for additional nutrients and balanced blood sugar levels.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try eating cucumbers as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to reduce glucose spikes.
Add a Vinegar-Based Dressing
Use a dressing with vinegar, such as balsamic or apple cider vinegar, which can help manage blood sugar response.
Chew Slowly
Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly can aid digestion and help regulate glucose release into the bloodstream.

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.
