How to consume Grilled Cheese Sandwich without glucose spikes
Incorporate Whole Grain Bread
Opt for whole grain or whole wheat bread instead of white bread. These are typically higher in fiber and can help slow down the absorption of sugar.
Add a Protein Source
Include a lean protein source like turkey slices or a side of grilled chicken with your grilled cheese. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Use a moderate amount of healthy fats such as avocado or olive oil spread instead of butter to prepare your grilled cheese. Healthy fats can aid in slowing down digestion.
Pair with Vegetables
Add a side salad or include vegetables like spinach, tomatoes, or mushrooms in your sandwich. The additional fiber can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Limit Portion Size
Pay attention to the portion size of your grilled cheese sandwich. Consuming smaller, more frequent meals can prevent large glucose spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help with the digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Exercise After Eating
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after your meal. Exercise can help lower blood sugar levels.
Choose Low-Carb Cheese
Use a cheese that is lower in carbohydrates to reduce the potential for a glucose spike.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to consume your grilled cheese sandwich earlier in the day when your metabolism might be more active.
Mindful Eating Practices
Eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. Mindful eating can improve digestion and help you better control your food intake.

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