How to consume italian pasta with tuna without glucose spikes
Choose Whole-Grain Pasta
Opt for whole-grain or whole-wheat pasta instead of regular pasta. They are digested more slowly and can help maintain steadier blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Be mindful of portion sizes. Eating smaller portions of pasta can help prevent large spikes in blood sugar.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Incorporate fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, broccoli, bell peppers, or a mixed salad. Fiber slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado, or a small portion of nuts. They can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Balance with Protein
Ensure the meal has adequate protein. Tuna is a good protein source, but you can also add beans or legumes to the dish for additional protein and fiber.
Eat Slowly
Eating your meal slowly and chewing thoroughly can help your body better manage blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help with digestion and the metabolic process.
Include a Small Portion of Vinegar
Drizzling a small amount of balsamic vinegar over your salad or pasta can help lower the meal's impact on your blood sugar.
Use Fresh, Whole Ingredients
Prepare your pasta with fresh tomatoes, herbs, and other whole ingredients rather than processed sauces, which can contain added sugars.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat your meal at a consistent time each day. Regular meal times can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

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.
