How to consume chicken or turkey chow mein or chop suey without glucose spikes
Increase Fiber Intake
Add vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your chow mein or chop suey. These are high in fiber and can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Choose Whole Grains
Opt for whole grain noodles or brown rice as a base instead of refined noodles or white rice. These options have a slower rate of glucose absorption.
Add Lean Proteins
Incorporate lean proteins like tofu, tempeh, or more chicken and turkey to your dish. Proteins can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Limit Sauces
Many sauces are high in sugar. Use smaller amounts or choose low-sugar alternatives like tamari or a light soy sauce.
Portion Control
Be mindful of portion sizes. Eating smaller amounts of chow mein or chop suey can help prevent a large glucose spike.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado slices or a drizzle of olive oil. Fats can slow down the digestion process and therefore the rate of glucose absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Hydration can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly. This can help in better digestion and slower glucose absorption.
Add Vinegar
A splash of vinegar in your dish can help lower blood sugar levels due to its acetic acid content.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat at regular intervals throughout the day, and avoid having a large meal all at once. Spacing out your meals can help manage blood sugar levels 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.
