How to consume Lebanese - Zaatar Manakeesh without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of the Zaatar Manakeesh. Smaller portions will result in a lesser impact on your blood sugar levels.
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein, such as grilled chicken, chickpeas, or lentils, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Pair the manakeesh with healthy fats like avocado or a small serving of nuts. Fats can also help slow the digestion process, lessening the spike.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add a side of leafy greens or vegetables such as spinach or bell peppers. The fiber content will help moderate the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the meal. Proper hydration aids digestion and can help in managing blood sugar levels.
Pre-Meal Snack
Consider having a small, low-carbohydrate, high-fiber snack before enjoying the manakeesh, such as a piece of fruit like an apple or a handful of almonds, to prepare your body for the meal.
Opt for Whole Grain
If possible, choose a whole-grain version of the manakeesh base, which will be more slowly digested and absorbed.
Engage in Light Activity
Plan for a short walk or some light exercise after eating, which can help lower post-meal blood sugar levels.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. This can help you better enjoy your food and give your body more time to process the carbohydrates.
Monitor Your Response
Keep track of how your body responds to different combinations of foods and adjust your choices 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.
