How to consume Meatballs With Sauce (Mixture) without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your meal. The fiber can help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include Whole Grains
Serve the meatballs with a small portion of whole grains such as quinoa, barley, or bulgur. These grains have a moderate effect on blood sugar levels.
Opt for Whole Wheat or Legume-Based Pasta
If you prefer pasta with your meatballs, choose whole wheat or legume-based options. These types of pasta have a lesser impact on blood sugar compared to traditional varieties.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices, olive oil, or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds. Healthy fats can help moderate the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Use Tomato Sauce Wisely
If your meatballs are served with tomato sauce, ensure it is a low-sugar version or make your own using fresh tomatoes and herbs. Avoid sauces that have added sugars.
Increase Protein Intake
Balance your meal with an additional protein source such as a side of beans or lentils. This can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Watch your portion sizes. Eating smaller, more frequent meals can help manage glucose levels better than consuming large portions at once.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the meal. Staying hydrated can aid in digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Consider a Side Salad
Start your meal with a salad that includes mixed greens, cucumbers, and carrots with a light vinaigrette dressing. The fiber in the salad can help slow down glucose absorption.
Avoid Sweetened Beverages
Stay away from drinking sugary drinks with your meal. Opt for water, unsweetened tea, or sparkling water with a splash of lemon instead.

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.
