How to consume Boiled Egg, Quinoa (Cooked) without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber
Add non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale to your meal. These vegetables can help slow the absorption of glucose.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Include sources of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil. These fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Eat Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of quinoa and balance it with more low-starch vegetables and lean protein such as grilled chicken or tofu.
Add Protein
Consume additional protein sources like grilled fish or legumes (lentils, chickpeas) alongside your boiled egg and quinoa. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Include Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, to your quinoa salad or as part of a dressing. Vinegar has properties that can help control blood sugar levels.
Avoid Sugary Beverages
Skip any sugary drinks or desserts during your meal. Opt for water, herbal tea, or a beverage sweetened with a small amount of stevia.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can help regulate the speed at which glucose enters your bloodstream.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. Physical activity helps improve insulin sensitivity and can lower blood glucose spikes.
Monitor Carbohydrate Intake
Be mindful of your overall carbohydrate intake throughout the day to maintain balanced 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.
