How to consume Sweet potato without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a source of protein, such as chicken, tofu, or beans, in your meal to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocados, nuts, or olive oil to further slow carbohydrate absorption and promote satiety.
Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or kale to your meal. The fiber content can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Limit the portion size of sweet potatoes. Smaller portions can significantly reduce the impact on blood glucose.
Cook with Care
Opt for methods like steaming or baking instead of boiling, as they may contribute to a lower impact on blood sugar.
Whole Versions
Choose whole sweet potatoes over processed forms like fries or chips, as they have a more gradual effect on blood sugar.
Timing of Carbohydrate Intake
Have sweet potatoes as part of a balanced meal rather than on their own, to distribute the impact on blood sugar.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water, as maintaining hydration can aid in overall metabolic and digestive processes.
Physical Activity
Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after your meal to help facilitate glucose uptake by muscles.
Meal Planning
Consider having sweet potatoes earlier in the day when your body may handle carbohydrates more efficiently.

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