How to consume Pasta With Carbonara Sauce without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the amount of pasta you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help in managing glucose levels more effectively.
Choose Whole-Grain Pasta
Opt for whole-grain or whole-wheat pasta instead of refined pasta. They digest more slowly and can help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Incorporate non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, and bell peppers into your pasta dish. These can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add sources of healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds. They can help in slowing digestion and preventing a spike in blood sugar.
Protein Addition
Add lean proteins such as grilled chicken, turkey, or tofu to your pasta. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Drink Water
Drink a glass of water before and during your meal to help you feel full and reduce the likelihood of overeating.
Mindful Eating
Eat your meal slowly and chew thoroughly. This allows your body more time to signal when you’re full and can help in preventing overeating.
Monitor Timing
Try to eat your pasta earlier in the day when your body is more active, which helps in better glucose management.
Include a Side Salad
Have a green salad with a light dressing before your pasta dish. The fiber in the salad can help in slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Use a Smaller Plate
Serve your pasta on a smaller plate to naturally limit portion size and help prevent overconsumption.
Limit Added Sugars
Be wary of sauces or dressings with added sugars. Opt for homemade sauces where you can control the ingredients.
Combine with Physical Activity
Plan for a short walk or light exercise after your meal. Physical activity can help manage blood sugar levels.

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

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
