How to consume Apples, Papayas without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume apples or papayas with a source of protein such as nuts, seeds, or Greek yogurt. Protein helps slow down the absorption of sugars.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado, chia seeds, or a small handful of almonds to your fruit snacks. Fats also help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Balance with Fiber
Include high-fiber foods such as oats, lentils, or whole grains in your meal. Fiber slows sugar absorption and can help stabilize blood glucose levels.
Eat Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of apples or papayas. Eating smaller amounts can reduce the overall sugar load on your system.
Pre-Meal Hydration
Drink a glass of water before consuming fruits. Staying hydrated can help your body manage sugar levels more effectively.
Opt for Whole Fruits
Always choose whole fruits over fruit juices or smoothies. Whole fruits contain more fiber, which helps in controlling blood sugar spikes.
Add Leafy Greens
Combine apples or papayas with leafy greens like spinach or kale in a salad. These greens are low in sugar and high in fiber, helping to moderate the impact on your blood sugar.
Monitor Timing of Consumption
Try eating fruits earlier in the day or as part of a meal rather than on an empty stomach. This can help in better glucose management.
Include Cinnamon
Sprinkle cinnamon on your apples or papayas. Cinnamon has been shown to help reduce blood sugar levels.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating fruits. Physical activity can help your muscles use up some of the sugar, thereby reducing spikes.

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