How to consume english ridge gourd, white rice without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the portion size of white rice and English ridge gourd to decrease the overall glycemic load of your meal.
Add Fiber-Rich Foods
Include leafy greens or vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or bell peppers to your meal, as fiber helps slow down glucose absorption.
Include Protein
Add lean protein sources like chicken, tofu, or legumes such as lentils or chickpeas, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Use healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil in your meal. They can slow digestion and help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Choose Whole Grains
Substitute a portion of white rice with whole grains like quinoa, barley, or bulgur, which are less likely to cause a rapid increase in blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to support digestion and potentially reduce blood sugar spikes.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help lower blood glucose levels.
Balanced Meal Timing
Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day to prevent large spikes and dips in blood sugar.
Monitor Blood Sugar
Regularly check your blood glucose levels to understand how your body responds to different foods and adjust your diet accordingly.
Experiment with Cooking Methods
Try steaming or baking instead of frying the ridge gourd to reduce added fats and calories, which can contribute to blood sugar spikes.

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