If you aren't diabetic you could pay for something like Nutrisense or Levels to get enough monitors to cover about 2-3 months of activity, learn what triggers spikes, and then cut it. What you see in those three months is pretty much what you are going to see going forward unless you were to make a significant lifestyle change and stick to it (going to/from carnivore/omnivore/vegetarian, cutting out alcohol, etc...)

I used Levels for about 3 months and I saw the same thing over and over again, it was obvious when I was being good about my eating, it was obvious when I went out for happy hour. I learned a couple things, mix a little fat or protein in if you are consuming carbs to blunt the spike, the alert to "take a walk to blunt the spike" is never long enough unless you go for an hour or more. Another year or two of wearing it wouldn't change any of that.

Unless your PC says for your condition of X we are going to try and get your glucose level to never go past Y and see if it fixes it, a CGM for non diabetic people is something you can timebox to 3-ish months, get the data, and get out for under a $1000 one time investment.
