How to consume Zucchini without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Combine zucchini with a lean protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to help moderate the glucose response.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds when you eat zucchini to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Fiber
Add high-fiber vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale to your zucchini dish to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Grains
If you're having zucchini in a meal that includes grains, choose whole grains like quinoa or brown rice instead of refined grains.
Eat Smaller Portions
Monitor portion sizes of zucchini to avoid excessive intake that could lead to a rise in blood glucose.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water with your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Cook Lightly
Lightly steam or sauté the zucchini instead of frying it to maintain its nutritional value and avoid extra calories.
Add Vinegar
Use a splash of vinegar or lemon juice in your zucchini dishes; the acidity can help lower the blood sugar response.
Avoid Sugary Sauces
Skip adding sugary sauces or dressings to your zucchini to prevent additional glucose spikes.
Include Legumes
Pair zucchini with legumes like lentils or chickpeas, which have a slower effect on 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.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
