How to consume Italian Bread without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a source of protein such as lean turkey, chicken breast, or a hard-boiled egg. This can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts) to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Vegetable Sides
Eat plenty of non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli alongside your meal. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and high in fiber.
Opt for Whole Grain Variants
If available, choose whole grain or multigrain Italian bread over white bread. Whole grains are digested more slowly.
Control Portion Size
Limit your intake to a smaller portion of Italian bread, reducing the overall carbohydrate load.
Include Fiber-rich Foods
Add high-fiber foods such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small serving of berries to your meal to help slow carbohydrate absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated helps in the proper functioning of your digestive system.
Exercise
Engage in light physical activity after your meal, such as a 15-minute walk, to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.
Monitor Timing
Spread out your carbohydrate intake throughout the day rather than consuming a large amount in one sitting.
Choose Low-Sugar Spreads
Use natural, low-sugar spreads like hummus or mashed avocado instead of sugary jams and jellies.

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.
