How to consume Falafel, Hummus without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of falafel and hummus to minimize the glucose spike. Smaller amounts can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Add Protein
Include a lean protein source like grilled chicken or turkey alongside your meal. Protein can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates, reducing blood sugar spikes.
Pair with Fiber-rich Vegetables
Add a generous serving of leafy greens or vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli to your meal. The fiber content helps slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Choose Whole Grain or Low-Carb Sides
Opt for whole grain or low-carb options such as quinoa or cauliflower rice instead of traditional pita or white rice.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado or a handful of nuts to your meal. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help regulate blood sugar.
Increase Physical Activity
Take a walk or engage in light exercise after eating to help your body utilize the glucose from your meal more efficiently.
Monitor Meal Timing
Avoid eating late at night or when your body is less active, as this can lead to higher glucose spikes.
Experiment with Preparation Methods
Try baking or air frying falafel instead of deep frying to reduce unhealthy fats that can impact blood sugar levels.
Check Ingredients
If purchasing pre-made falafel or hummus, read labels to avoid added sugars or high-carb fillers that can increase blood sugar spikes.

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