How to consume beef biltong without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the amount of biltong you consume in a single sitting. Smaller portions can help moderate the glucose response.
Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods
Include foods like lentils, chickpeas, or black beans in your meal. These can slow down the absorption of sugars and help stabilize glucose levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds alongside your biltong. This combination can slow digestion and help manage the glucose spike.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water before and after eating biltong. Staying hydrated can aid in the efficient metabolism of food.
Physical Activity
Engage in light exercise, such as a short walk, after consuming biltong. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake by muscles.
Include Protein
Complement the biltong with a source of lean protein, like grilled chicken or tofu, to help moderate the release of sugar into the bloodstream.
Timing of Meals
Space out your meals and snacks throughout the day to avoid overwhelming your body's ability to process glucose.
Vegetable Pairing
Add non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or kale to your meal. Their fiber content can aid in reducing glucose spikes.
Monitor Your Response
Keep track of your body’s response to biltong through regular glucose monitoring. This can help you make informed decisions about portion sizes and pairings.
Consult a Healthcare Professional
Seek advice from a healthcare provider or a nutritionist for personalized strategies tailored to your specific health needs.

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