1. A method for lowering the risk of developing blood-glucose-spike-induced diseases, or for managing the said diseases, if already developed, the method comprising the steps of:

  • a) generating, through measurements, a person-specific profile of glucose concentration vs. time for at least one significant meal, the profile indicating the timing and the amplitude of the glucose spike;

    b) tuning or training a blood glucose response model with the measured person-specific blood glucose profile data for at least one meal;

    c) using the tuned or the trained blood glucose response model to develop at least one significant meal plan and a post-prandial exercise plan, needed for reducing the post-prandial glucose spike, or the glucose shock, defined by the increase in area over the pre-meal area under the blood glucose concentration vs. time plot, to a respective target level; and

    d) executing the meal and/or the post-prandial exercise plan and comparing the measured blood glucose spike, or the glucose shock with a target range to assess the success of the glucose spike reduction plan, and readjusting, if necessary, the meal and/or the post-prandial exercise plan using the tuned or trained blood glucose response model.
