How to consume Pecan Pie without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit the amount of pecan pie you consume to reduce the overall sugar intake. Consider having just a small slice instead of a large serving.
Balanced Meal
Pair your pecan pie with a source of protein or healthy fat, such as a handful of almonds or a small serving of Greek yogurt. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream.
Fiber-Rich Foods
Incorporate fiber with your dessert. Consider having a side of raw vegetables like carrots or a small salad to help moderate the spike.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after your meal. This can help with digestion and moderate blood sugar levels.
Physical Activity
Plan for a light walk or some other form of gentle exercise after enjoying your pecan pie. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels post-meal.
Cinnamon Addition
Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on your pie or in your coffee. Some studies suggest cinnamon might help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully, savoring each bite. This can help you feel more satisfied and potentially reduce the quantity consumed.
Incorporate Vinegar
Consider having a small amount of apple cider vinegar diluted in water before your meal. This might help in reducing post-meal blood sugar spikes.
Healthy Alternatives
Next time, try making a lower sugar version of pecan pie or opt for a dessert that’s less sweetened.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of how your body responds and adjust your strategies as needed. Everyone's response to sugar can vary, so personalizing your approach can be beneficial.

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