How to consume Quinoa khichdi without glucose spikes
Incorporate More Vegetables
Add non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, zucchini, cauliflower, and bell peppers to your quinoa khichdi. These vegetables are low in sugar and can help moderate the glucose spike.
Include Protein-Rich Foods
Mix in protein-rich foods like lentils, chickpeas, or tofu into your khichdi. Proteins can help slow down the digestion process and reduce glucose spikes.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocados, nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), or seeds (like chia seeds or flaxseeds) in your meal. These can help in slowing the absorption of glucose.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of your portion sizes. Eating smaller amounts more frequently can help manage your blood sugar levels better than consuming large portions at once.
Opt for Whole Grains
Replace some or all of the quinoa with other whole grains like barley or oats, which are also low in sugar content.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can help in the overall digestion process and in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
Include Vinegar or Lemon Juice
Adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to your khichdi can help in reducing the blood sugar spike.
Chew Slowly
Eating your food slowly and chewing thoroughly can aid in better digestion and control glucose levels.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat your khichdi earlier in the day rather than late at night. Your body's ability to manage glucose is generally better in the earlier part of the day.
Physical Activity
Incorporate some light exercise or a short walk after meals. Physical activity can help lower your blood sugar levels post consumption.

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