How to consume Coke Zero, McDonald's - Quarter Pounder With Cheese, Mcdonalds - Fries - Medium without glucose spikes
Opt for Whole Grain Bread
Replace the regular bun of the Quarter Pounder with whole grain bread. Whole grains are digested more slowly, helping to prevent a rapid rise in blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Incorporate more fiber into your meal by adding a side salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. This can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Substitute Fries with a Side Salad
Instead of medium fries, choose a side salad with a light vinaigrette dressing. This will provide fewer fast-digesting carbohydrates and more fiber.
Drink Water or Unsweetened Tea
Instead of Coke Zero, opt for water or unsweetened tea. Even though Coke Zero does not contain sugar, some artificial sweeteners can still affect insulin sensitivity.
Include Healthy Fats
Add foods rich in healthy fats, like a small portion of avocado or a handful of nuts (almonds, walnuts, etc.), to your meal. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Choose a Smaller Portion
Consider eating a smaller portion of the Quarter Pounder. You can achieve this by removing one of the buns or eating only half of the burger.
Incorporate Protein
Combine your meal with a protein-rich option like grilled chicken or boiled eggs. Protein helps slow the digestion of carbohydrates and can stabilize blood sugar levels.
Walk After Meals
A 10-15 minute walk after eating can help your body utilize some of the glucose from your meal, reducing the spike in blood sugar.
Avoid High-Sodium Sauces
Some sauces and condiments can be high in sodium, which can indirectly affect blood sugar levels. Opt for mustard or a small amount of ketchup instead.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to eat and chew your food thoroughly. This helps with better digestion and can prevent overeating, which can lead to a large spike in glucose levels.

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