How to consume Chocolate cookie without glucose spikes
Balance with Protein and Healthy Fats
Before or along with your chocolate cookie, consume a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of nuts, a piece of cheese, or some Greek yogurt. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar.
Increase Fiber Intake
Pair your cookie with high-fiber foods like a small apple, a serving of berries, or some carrot sticks. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Stay Active After Eating
Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, following your snack. Physical activity helps your muscles use glucose more efficiently.
Opt for Whole Grains
If you’re baking cookies at home, use whole grain flour instead of refined flour. Whole grains digest more slowly and can help keep blood sugar levels steadier.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can aid in the efficient functioning of your metabolism and glucose regulation.
Portion Control
Limit your consumption to one chocolate cookie instead of multiple, to reduce the overall sugar intake at once.
Include Leafy Greens
Eat a small side salad with leafy greens like spinach or kale before your cookie. These vegetables are low in carbohydrates and can help manage blood sugar levels.
Try Vinegar
Consuming a small amount of vinegar, such as adding it to your salad dressing, before eating your cookie can improve your body’s insulin sensitivity.
Choose Dark Chocolate
If possible, opt for dark chocolate cookies with at least 70% cocoa. Dark chocolate has less sugar and more beneficial compounds than milk chocolate.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating the cookie to understand how your body responds. Make adjustments to your diet and activity as needed based on your observations.

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

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
