How to consume Lentil Curry without glucose spikes
Pair with Non-Starchy Vegetables
Include a generous serving of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, broccoli, or cauliflower with your lentil curry to help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or nuts into your meal. These can help to moderate the increase in blood sugar levels.
Include Protein-Rich Foods
Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to your meal.
Use Whole Grains
If you want to serve your lentil curry with a side, opt for whole grains like quinoa, barley, or whole-wheat chapati instead of white rice or naan.
Monitor Portion Sizes
Keep an eye on portion sizes to avoid consuming excessive carbohydrates at once. A smaller serving can reduce the glucose spike.
Increase Dietary Fiber
Add extra fiber to your meal with foods such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or psyllium husk, which can help in slowing down digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal. Proper hydration can help in maintaining stable blood sugar levels.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Eating your meal slowly and chewing thoroughly can aid in better digestion and more gradual absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Herbs and Spices
Use blood sugar-friendly herbs and spices like cinnamon, fenugreek, or turmeric in your lentil curry. These can have beneficial effects on glucose metabolism.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light exercise like a short walk before your meal to improve insulin sensitivity and help mitigate the glucose spike.

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