How to consume Banana without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Combine your banana with a source of protein like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts).
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats such as a spoonful of nut butter (like almond or peanut butter) or some avocado slices.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair your banana with high-fiber foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small serving of oatmeal.
Opt for Smaller Portions
Instead of eating a whole banana, try having half and complement it with other low-impact foods.
Consume Before Exercise
Eat your banana before a workout to help your body use the glucose more effectively.
Combine with Non-Starchy Vegetables
Have your banana alongside non-starchy vegetables like a small salad, which can help slow down sugar absorption.
Drink Water
Stay hydrated by drinking water before and after eating your banana to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Choose Less Ripe Bananas
Opt for bananas that are less ripe, as they tend to have a lower impact on blood sugar.
Chew Slowly
Eating slowly and thoroughly chewing your food can aid in better digestion and slower glucose absorption.
Monitor Timing
Consider having your banana as part of a balanced meal rather than as a standalone snack to mitigate spikes.

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