How to consume Frankfurter Or Hot Dog With Catsup And/Or Mustard On Bun without glucose spikes
Choose Whole Grain Buns
Opt for whole grain or whole wheat buns instead of white buns. They contain more fiber, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Vegetables
Load your hot dog with non-starchy vegetables like lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and peppers. The fiber in these vegetables can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Pick Leaner Sausages
Choose turkey or chicken sausages instead of traditional beef or pork hot dogs. These options generally have less fat and may cause a smaller spike in blood sugar.
Limit Condiments
Use a small amount of catsup or mustard, as these can add extra sugar and carbohydrates. You could also consider using sugar-free or low-sugar versions.
Include a Side Salad
Pair your hot dog with a side salad made from leafy greens like spinach, kale, or arugula. This can add more fiber to your meal, helping to moderate your blood sugar.
Drink Water or Unsweetened Beverages
Avoid sugary drinks like soda or sweetened iced tea. Instead, opt for water, herbal tea, or sparkling water.
Add a Source of Protein
Include another source of protein like a small serving of cheese or a handful of nuts. Protein can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates and reduce blood sugar spikes.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat your meal slowly and chew thoroughly. This can help your body process the food more effectively and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.
Exercise After Eating
A short walk or light exercise after your meal can help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently, thereby reducing spikes.
Monitor Portions
Be mindful of portion sizes. Opt for a smaller hot dog or half a bun to reduce the overall intake of carbohydrates and sugars.

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