How to consume Baked Beans without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the amount of baked beans you consume in a single meal to keep your glucose levels more stable.
Include Protein
Pair baked beans with a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, fish, or tofu to slow down digestion and glucose absorption.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or olive oil into your meal to help curb the glucose spike.
Combine with Fiber-Rich Foods
Add vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your plate. The fiber content in these vegetables helps slow down the release of glucose.
Choose Whole-Grain Options
If you’re having baked beans on toast, opt for whole-grain bread. The complex carbohydrates in whole grains are digested more slowly.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body regulate glucose levels more efficiently.
Opt for Homemade
Make your own baked beans to control the amount of sugar and other high-carb ingredients added.
Monitor Timing
Eat your baked beans earlier in the day when your body is generally more efficient at metabolizing food.
Small Frequent Meals
Instead of having a large portion at once, consider having smaller portions spread throughout the day.
Physical Activity
Engage in a light walk or some form of physical activity after eating to help your body use the glucose more effectively.

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.
