How to consume Home Cooked - Dal (Lentils) and Basmati Rice , 1/2 cup (45g) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Reduce the amount of basmati rice you consume and increase the portion of dal. This helps limit the carbohydrate intake while increasing protein and fiber.
Add Vegetables
Include non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, and bell peppers. These vegetables can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil. Fats can help moderate the absorption of sugars.
Choose Whole Lentils
Use whole lentils instead of split ones as they have more fiber and take longer to digest.
Cook Rice Differently
Cook basmati rice with extra water and drain it to reduce the starch content.
Add Protein
Include an additional protein source like grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg to your meal. Protein can slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Eat Smaller, More Frequent Meals
Instead of having a large portion at once, try having smaller meals more frequently to avoid large spikes in blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water throughout your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body process carbohydrates more efficiently.
Include Fermented Foods
Add a side of fermented foods like yogurt or kimchi. These can improve digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Avoid Sugary Additions
Refrain from adding sugary sauces or toppings to your meal as these can cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels.

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