How to consume Lettuce Salad With Assorted Vegetables without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas. Protein helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, preventing a rapid rise in blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds (such as flaxseeds or chia seeds). These fats can help stabilize blood sugar by reducing the rate at which glucose enters the bloodstream.
Choose Low-Glycemic Vegetables
Focus on non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, cucumber, and bell peppers as they have a minimal impact on blood sugar levels.
Use Vinegar-Based Dressings
Opt for dressings made with vinegar or lemon juice rather than creamy dressings. The acidity can help moderate blood sugar responses.
Incorporate Whole Grains
If you want to include grains, choose small portions of whole grains like quinoa or barley, which have a slower impact on blood sugar.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add high-fiber vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or artichokes. Fiber slows digestion and helps to maintain a stable blood sugar level.
Mind Portion Sizes
Pay attention to portion sizes, particularly with higher-carb ingredients like carrots or beets, to avoid excessive carbohydrate intake.
Time Your Meals
Consider eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to maintain steady blood sugar levels rather than large, infrequent meals.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal, as adequate hydration can aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Monitor Other Ingredients
Be cautious with added ingredients like croutons or sugary dressings that can contribute to a spike in blood sugar levels.

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