How to consume Chicken Breast, Quinoa (Cooked) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Monitor and reduce the portion size of quinoa you consume. A smaller serving can help manage your glucose response more effectively.
Incorporate Fiber
Add vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli to your meal. These are rich in fiber which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more balanced glucose level.
Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats, such as avocado or a small amount of nuts like almonds or walnuts, to your meal. Fats can help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Protein Pairing
Ensure you have an adequate portion of chicken breast or add another low-carb protein source like tofu or eggs to help moderate the glucose effects of quinoa.
Meal Timing
Avoid consuming this meal on an empty stomach. Eating it after a small, balanced snack may help in reducing the glucose spike.
Mix Quinoa with Lentils
Combine quinoa with cooked lentils to increase the fiber and protein content, which can aid in a steadier glucose response.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water throughout your meal. Staying well-hydrated can support overall metabolism and stabilize glucose levels.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as walking, after your meal to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.
Spice It Up
Use spices like cinnamon, which may help improve insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully to enhance digestion and help your body better manage the glucose absorbed from your meal.

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