How to consume Lettuce Salad With Assorted Vegetables (Including Tomatoes And/Or Carrots) without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein
Add a source of lean protein to your salad, such as grilled chicken, turkey, tofu, or chickpeas. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado slices, a sprinkle of nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), or seeds (like chia or flaxseeds) to slow the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Include extra fiber-rich vegetables such as cucumbers, bell peppers, or broccoli to increase the fiber content of your salad, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Use Vinegar-Based Dressings
Opt for dressings with a vinegar base rather than creamy dressings. Vinegar can help lower blood sugar spikes.
Portion Control with High-Carb Vegetables
Be mindful of portion sizes of higher-carbohydrate vegetables like carrots and tomatoes, balancing them with lower-carbohydrate options.
Eat Slowly and Chew Thoroughly
Take your time eating, as this can improve digestion and help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Include Whole Grains
If you desire more carbohydrates, consider adding a small portion of whole grains like quinoa or bulgur, known for their slower digestion.
Drink Water Before Meals
Consuming a glass of water before your meal may help control appetite and prevent overeating, which can affect blood sugar levels.
Monitor Serving Sizes
Keep an eye on serving sizes to prevent consuming excessive amounts of carbohydrates in one sitting.
Regular Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after your meal to help lower post-meal blood glucose levels.

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