How to consume Cooked Mixed Vegetables (Corn, Lima Beans, Peas, Green Beans And Carrots, Fat Added In Cooking without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of the mixed vegetables to minimize the overall carbohydrate intake.
Fiber Addition
Pair the mixed vegetables with high-fiber foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or leafy greens (e.g., spinach or kale) which can help slow down glucose absorption.
Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocados, nuts, or olive oil to your meal to further slow down the digestion process and reduce glucose spikes.
Protein Pairing
Include a source of lean protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or legumes to balance the meal and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Vinegar
Consuming a small amount of vinegar (such as apple cider vinegar) before or during your meal can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce post-meal glucose spikes.
Cooking Methods
Opt for steaming or roasting the vegetables with minimal added fats instead of frying them, as this can help maintain their nutritional integrity and prevent excessive calorie intake.
Meal Timing
Try to consume mixed vegetables as part of a balanced meal during lunch rather than dinner, as insulin sensitivity is generally better earlier in the day.
Hydration
Drink a glass of water before and during the meal to help with digestion and maintain hydration, which can aid in the regulation of blood sugar levels.
Frequent Monitoring
Keep track of your blood glucose levels when you eat mixed vegetables and adjust your portion sizes and combinations based on your body’s response.
Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your muscles use the glucose more efficiently and reduce the overall blood sugar spike.

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