How to consume Gyro Sandwich (Pita Bread, Beef, Lamb, Onion, Condiments With Tomato And Spread) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of the gyro sandwich to limit carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing glucose spikes.
Choose Whole Grain Pita
Opt for whole grain or whole wheat pita bread instead of the regular one to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Increase Vegetable Content
Add more non-starchy vegetables like lettuce, cucumber, and bell peppers to your gyro. This increases fiber content, which helps stabilize blood sugar levels.
Lean Protein Options
Consider using leaner cuts of meat or substitute with grilled chicken or turkey to reduce saturated fat intake, which can improve insulin sensitivity.
Limit Sugary Condiments
Use condiments like tzatziki or hummus in moderation, and avoid ones with added sugars or opt for homemade versions with lower sugar content.
Spread Awareness
Use spreads that are high in good fats, such as avocado or a small amount of olive oil-based dressing, which can help slow digestion.
Include a Side Salad
Pair your gyro with a side salad that includes leafy greens and a light vinaigrette to add more fiber and nutrients, helping to moderate blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after your meal to help with digestion and glucose regulation.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat, as this can help your body better manage the rise in blood sugar levels after a meal.
Regular Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.
Monitor Blood Sugar Levels
Keep track of your blood sugar levels after eating gyros to understand how your body responds and adjust your eating habits accordingly.

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