How to consume Homemade - Idly without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein like yogurt, cottage cheese, or a boiled egg to your meal. This can help slow down the absorption of glucose into your bloodstream.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil. Fats can help moderate the spike in glucose levels.
Vegetable Addition
Add a serving of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, tomatoes, or bell peppers to your idly. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and high in fiber, which can help reduce the glucose spike.
Use Whole Ingredients
If possible, make idly using whole grains or mixed with lentils. Whole ingredients often contain more fiber, which can help slow glucose absorption.
Portion Control
Monitor your portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can help manage your glucose levels more effectively.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly. Eating slowly can help your body better manage glucose levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration helps in the overall digestion process and can help reduce glucose spikes.
Add Fiber
Sprinkle some flaxseeds, chia seeds, or include a small serving of beans. These are rich in fiber and support more stable blood sugar levels.
Consistent Meal Timing
Try to eat at regular intervals throughout the day. Skipping meals can lead to larger spikes when you do eat.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep a food diary to track your responses to different foods and portions. This will help you identify patterns and make necessary adjustments.

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.
