How to consume Veg Salad without glucose spikes
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats to your salad, such as avocado, nuts, or seeds. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include a Protein Source
Add a protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas to your salad. Protein can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
If you’re including grains in your salad, choose whole grains like quinoa or bulgur, as they are digested more slowly.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Ensure your salad has plenty of fiber-rich vegetables like leafy greens, bell peppers, and broccoli. Fiber aids in moderating blood sugar spikes.
Use Vinegar-Based Dressings
Use vinegar-based or lemon juice dressings instead of creamy ones, as they can help reduce blood sugar levels.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of portion sizes, especially with ingredients that contain carbohydrates, to avoid overconsumption.
Pair with Protein Snacks
If you’re having the salad as a meal, consider pairing it with a protein-rich snack like a small handful of almonds.
Chew Thoroughly
Take your time to chew your food thoroughly. This can aid digestion and slow down the rise in blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before your meal to stay hydrated, as dehydration can affect blood sugar levels.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat at regular intervals to prevent spikes due to erratic eating patterns.

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