How to consume Moussaka without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Eat a smaller portion of Moussaka to minimize the carbohydrate load and manage your body's glucose response.
High-Fiber Foods
Include a side dish rich in fiber such as lentils, chickpeas, or a mixed green salad, which can help slow down digestion and reduce glucose spikes.
Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado or a small handful of nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, to your meal to help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Lean Protein
Pair Moussaka with a serving of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or fish, to help moderate blood sugar levels.
Vinegar Dressing
Use a vinegar-based salad dressing, such as balsamic or apple cider vinegar, which may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water with your meal, as staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help your muscles use glucose more effectively, reducing the spike.
Timing of Meals
Eat your meals at regular intervals throughout the day to help your body better manage blood sugar levels and prevent large spikes.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to register fullness and prevent overeating, which can lead to larger glucose spikes.
Monitor Ingredients
When preparing Moussaka, consider using alternative ingredients with lower carbohydrate content, such as eggplant in place of potatoes or using less béchamel sauce.

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