How to consume english chicken salad without glucose spikes
Include More Vegetables
Add a variety of non-starchy vegetables like cucumbers, bell peppers, and leafy greens to your chicken salad. These can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Opt for Vinegar-Based Dressings
Use dressings made with vinegar and olive oil instead of creamy or sugary dressings. Vinegar can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. These fats can help slow the digestion process and prevent spikes.
Choose Whole Grain Additions
If you include any grains in your salad, opt for whole grains like quinoa or barley. These have a slower rate of glucose release compared to refined grains.
Incorporate Protein
Ensure you have sufficient protein from the chicken. You can also add other protein sources like boiled eggs or chickpeas to keep you fuller for longer and stabilize glucose levels.
Limit High-Sugar Ingredients
Avoid adding fruits or ingredients that are high in natural sugars, such as dried cranberries or sweet dressings.
Portion Control
Be mindful of your portion sizes. Eating smaller, balanced portions can prevent overloading your system with glucose.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water with your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body process glucose more efficiently.
Use Fresh Herbs and Spices
Enhance flavor with fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, or dill, and spices like pepper or turmeric, which do not affect blood sugar levels.
Eat Slowly
Take your time eating your meal, chewing thoroughly. This aids digestion and gives your body time to regulate glucose 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.
