How to consume Cucumber (Peeled) without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein like cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, or hummus when eating cucumbers. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a handful of nuts. Fats can help to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Combine cucumbers with fiber-rich vegetables like leafy greens, bell peppers, or broccoli to slow down glucose absorption.
Eat Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of cucumbers and spread your intake throughout the day instead of consuming a large amount at once.
Opt for Whole Meals
Include cucumbers as part of a balanced meal rather than eating them alone. Combine them with lean proteins, healthy fats, and whole grains like quinoa or barley.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before meals to help with digestion and reduce the likelihood of a glucose spike.
Snack Wisely
When snacking, mix cucumbers with other low-starch vegetables like celery or cherry tomatoes.
Chew Thoroughly
Chew your food slowly and thoroughly to aid digestion and improve the metabolic response.
Monitor Overall Diet
Maintain a balanced diet throughout the day, ensuring you're not consuming other high-sugar foods that might contribute to glucose spikes.
Stay Physically Active
Incorporate light physical activity like walking after meals to help regulate 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.
