How to consume Sprout salad without glucose spikes
Add a Protein Source
Include lean proteins such as grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas in your sprout salad to help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts and seeds. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for Non-Starchy Vegetables
Mix in non-starchy vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, and leafy greens. These can add volume and nutrients without spiking blood sugar.
Use Vinegar-Based Dressings
Dress your salad with vinegar-based dressings instead of sugary or creamy ones. Vinegar can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Be mindful of portion sizes. Eating smaller, balanced portions can reduce the impact on your blood sugar.
Eat Fiber-Rich Additions
Include high-fiber foods such as chia seeds or flaxseeds in your salad. Fiber can slow the digestion process, leading to more gradual absorption of glucose.
Pair with Whole Grains
If you want to add grains to your salad, opt for whole grains like quinoa or bulgur. These grains are digested more slowly, helping to maintain steady blood sugar levels.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body process food more effectively.
Space Out Carbohydrate Intake
Instead of consuming all your carbohydrates in one meal, spread them out throughout the day to avoid a significant glucose spike.
Chew Thoroughly
Chewing your food well can aid in digestion and help your body manage blood sugar levels more efficiently.

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