How to consume Kung Pao Chicken, White Rice without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of both Kung Pao Chicken and white rice. Smaller portions mean less carbohydrate intake, which can help minimize glucose spikes.
Add Protein
Include a side of lean protein such as grilled chicken breast or tofu. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Fiber
Add a serving of vegetables like broccoli, bell peppers, or spinach to your meal. Fiber-rich foods can slow the digestion and absorption of sugar.
Choose Brown Rice
Substitute white rice with brown rice or another whole grain alternative like quinoa or barley. These options have a more gradual effect on blood sugar levels.
Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado slices or a handful of nuts. Fats can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates and reduce spikes.
Drink Water
Stay hydrated by drinking water before and during your meal, which can help with digestion and overall blood sugar control.
Eat Slowly
Take your time eating; slower consumption can help regulate the speed at which carbohydrates are broken down and absorbed.
Opt for Vinegar
Consider adding a splash of vinegar to your dish or having a small vinegar-based salad dressing. Acidic foods can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light physical activity such as a short walk before eating. Physical activity can improve insulin sensitivity and help manage blood sugar levels.
Monitor Timing
Try to eat your Kung Pao Chicken and rice earlier in the day when your body is generally better at processing carbohydrates 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.
