How to consume House Salad without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Incorporate lean protein sources like grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu to your salad. Protein helps slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado slices, nuts (like almonds or walnuts), or seeds (like chia or flax seeds). These can help moderate the glucose spike.
Choose Low-Glycemic Vegetables
Opt for non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, cucumbers, bell peppers, and tomatoes instead of higher-glycemic options like corn or carrots.
Use Whole Grains Sparingly
If you want to add some grains to your salad, choose options like quinoa or barley in small amounts rather than white rice or croutons.
Opt for Vinegar-Based Dressings
Use dressings made from vinegar and olive oil rather than creamy, sugary dressings. Vinegar can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Add Some Beans or Legumes
Including a small amount of beans such as chickpeas, black beans, or lentils can add fiber and protein, which help control blood sugar.
Watch Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the quantity of higher-carbohydrate ingredients like fruit, even if they are lower on the glycemic scale, to avoid consuming too many carbs at once.
Incorporate Fermented Foods
Add fermented vegetables like sauerkraut or kimchi to your salad. These can aid digestion and stabilize blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and with your meal. Proper hydration can impact how your body processes carbohydrates.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat your salad. Eating more slowly can give your body time to process the food and regulate blood sugar 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.
