How to consume italian pasta with arrabbiata without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the amount of pasta you consume in one sitting to lower the overall impact on your blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grain Pasta
Opt for whole grain or whole wheat pasta instead of regular pasta, as it is digested more slowly.
Add Protein
Include a good source of protein like grilled chicken, shrimp, or legumes in your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, or a small portion of nuts to your pasta dish, which can slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Increase Fiber
Include high-fiber vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers in your pasta dish to further slow down digestion.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking water before and during your meal can help you feel full and may reduce the quantity of pasta you eat.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly, which can help in maintaining steadier blood sugar levels.
Monitor Cooking Time
Cook the pasta al dente, as overcooking pasta can increase its impact on your blood sugar.
Balanced Meal
Pair your pasta with a side salad containing leafy greens and a vinaigrette dressing to add more fiber and reduce the impact on blood sugar.
Limit Sugar
Ensure that your arrabbiata sauce is low in added sugars. Opt for homemade sauces where you can control the ingredients.

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