Meal Ordering for Glucose Response
Meal ordering for glucose response eats vegetables and protein before starches in one sitting—often lowering post-meal spikes for type 2 when tested on CGM.
Meal ordering for glucose response means eating vegetables and protein before starches in the same meal—studies show lower post-meal peaks for some people with type 2 when carbs come last. It is not magic: total carbs and sleep still matter.
Try on CGM for two weeks before rewriting your menu. Works best with minimally processed sides.
