How to consume Pasta bolognese without glucose spikes
Choose Whole-Grain Pasta
Opt for whole-grain or whole-wheat pasta as these are digested more slowly compared to regular pasta, leading to a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Keep your pasta servings small. A smaller portion size will help limit the amount of carbohydrates you consume, reducing the spike in glucose.
Add Protein
Incorporate lean protein sources like lean ground turkey or chicken into your Bolognese sauce. Protein takes longer to digest, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats such as olive oil or avocado to your meal. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Load Up on Vegetables
Increase the amount of non-starchy vegetables in your Bolognese. Vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and spinach can add volume and nutrients without causing a sharp rise in blood sugar.
Fiber-Rich Ingredients
Use ingredients high in fiber such as lentils or beans in your Bolognese sauce. Fiber slows down the absorption of sugars and can help minimize glucose spikes.
Spice It Up
Use herbs and spices like oregano, basil, and garlic to flavor your Bolognese instead of adding sugar or processed sauces which can contribute to glucose spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated helps your body process foods more efficiently.
Avoid Sugary Beverages
Stick to water, herbal teas, or other non-sugary drinks. Sugary beverages can cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels.
Walk After Meals
A light walk after eating can help your body manage blood sugar levels by promoting the uptake of glucose into your muscles.

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.
