How to consume Chicken Shawarma, French Fries (In Vegetable Oil) without glucose spikes
Increase Fiber Intake
Pair your meal with high-fiber foods like a side salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The fiber can help slow the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices or a small serving of hummus. These can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.
Opt for Whole Grains
If possible, choose a whole-grain or whole-wheat pita for your shawarma. This can provide more nutrients and fiber compared to a regular pita.
Include Protein-Rich Foods
Add a side of lentil soup or chickpeas to your meal. These protein-rich options can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Be mindful of your portion sizes for both the shawarma and fries. Smaller portions can help prevent a larger spike in blood sugar.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water with your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body process the carbohydrates more effectively.
Opt for Baked or Air-fried Alternatives
If possible, choose baked or air-fried fries instead of deep-fried ones to reduce fat and calorie intake.
Include Low-Sugar Vegetables
Add vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini to your shawarma for added nutrients without a significant impact on blood sugar.
Reduce Sauce Quantity
Ask for sauces like garlic sauce or tahini on the side and use them sparingly, as they may contain added sugars or fats.
Post-Meal Activity
Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after your meal to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

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