How to consume Tuna Salad without glucose spikes
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Incorporate vegetables like spinach, kale, cucumbers, and bell peppers into your tuna salad. These low-sugar, high-fiber vegetables help slow down glucose absorption.
Use Whole-Grain Ingredients
If you're adding any form of bread or crackers to your tuna salad, use whole-grain options. Whole grains have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado or a small amount of olive oil. These fats can help slow the absorption of glucose.
Incorporate Nuts and Seeds
Consider adding chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small number of nuts like almonds or walnuts. These provide fiber and healthy fats that stabilize blood sugar.
Opt for Low-Sugar Dressings
Use vinegar-based dressings or those made from mustard and olive oil instead of sugary or creamy dressings.
Limit Processed Ingredients
Avoid adding processed foods like canned fruits or sweetened dried fruits to your salad. Stick with whole, natural ingredients.
Measure Portions
Keep an eye on portion sizes, especially when it comes to starchy ingredients. Smaller portions can help manage your glucose levels better.
Drink Water
Accompany your meal with water instead of sugary drinks or even fruit juices, which can spike blood sugar.
Add a Protein Boost
Consider mixing your tuna with other protein sources like boiled eggs or chickpeas. Protein helps to mitigate glucose spikes.
Use Fresh Herbs
Add fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, and dill to enhance flavor without adding sugar or calories.

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