How to consume Chicken With Gravy (Mixture), Steamed Rice without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of both the chicken with gravy and steamed rice to minimize the overall carbohydrate intake.
Add Non-Starchy Vegetables
Incorporate a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers. These foods have a slower impact on blood sugar levels and add fiber, which can help slow down digestion.
Choose Whole Grains
Replace steamed white rice with a smaller portion of brown rice or quinoa. These alternatives have a slower digestion rate, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado slices, olive oil, or a handful of nuts to your meal. Healthy fats can slow the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing the spike in blood sugar.
Eat Protein-Rich Snacks
Include a small, protein-rich snack like a boiled egg or Greek yogurt before your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Slow Down Eating
Eat your meal slowly and chew thoroughly. This can help your body process the food more gradually, leading to a more controlled blood sugar response.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Adequate hydration can aid digestion and help keep blood sugar levels stable.
Opt for Leaner Cuts
Use skinless chicken breast instead of dark meat or chicken with skin. This can reduce fat content and make the meal healthier overall.
Modify Gravy
Prepare the gravy with less flour or cornstarch and add more vegetables like mushrooms or onions to it. This can increase the fiber content and reduce the carbohydrate load.
Incorporate Vinegar
Add a splash of vinegar (such as apple cider or balsamic) to your meal. Vinegar has been shown to help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Plan Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal. Physical activity can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently, lowering blood sugar levels.
Monitor Meal Timing
Avoid eating large portions of carbohydrates late at night. Your body's insulin sensitivity can be lower in the evening, making it harder to manage 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.
