How to consume Salad without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein
Add lean protein sources such as grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas to your salad. Proteins can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Enhance your salad with healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds. These fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Non-Starchy Vegetables
Focus on non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, cucumbers, and bell peppers. These vegetables have a lower impact on blood sugar.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Incorporate high-fiber foods such as lentils, black beans, or quinoa. Fiber can help slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Limit Sugary Dressings
Avoid dressings that are high in sugars or refined carbohydrates. Opt for vinaigrettes made with olive oil and vinegar, or yogurt-based dressings.
Use Whole Grains
If you want to add grains, use whole grains like brown rice, bulgur, or farro. These can prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.
Be Mindful of Portion Sizes
Even healthy foods can cause spikes if consumed in large quantities. Pay attention to portion sizes to manage your blood sugar better.
Hydrate with Water
Drink water before and with your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body regulate blood sugar levels more effectively.
Chew Thoroughly
Chewing your food thoroughly can aid digestion and help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Avoid Sugary Additions
Skip adding dried fruits, croutons, or other sugary toppings which can quickly raise 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.
