How to consume Banana | Coffee without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as a handful of nuts or a spoonful of Greek yogurt when eating a banana. This helps slow the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of almond butter with your banana to moderate the glucose spike.
Choose Whole Grains
If you're having coffee with a side snack, opt for whole grain options like oats or whole wheat toast with your banana. These are digested more slowly.
Add Fiber
Increase the fiber content of your meal by adding chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a side of vegetables. Fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels.
Opt for Low-Sugar Coffee
Avoid adding sugar or sugary syrups to your coffee. Instead, use a small amount of a natural sweetener like stevia if needed.
Drink Coffee with a Meal
Consume your coffee with a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to minimize its effect on blood sugar.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated can help your body regulate blood sugar more effectively.
Monitor Portion Sizes
Limit your banana portion to a small or medium size and avoid over-consuming the fruit in one sitting.
Try Cinnamon
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your coffee or banana. Cinnamon is known to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Space Out Your Intake
Instead of consuming the banana and coffee together, try spacing them out by an hour or so to give your body time to process each.
Include Leafy Greens
Add a small side salad or leafy greens to your meal to help balance the glucose spike.
Opt for Green Tea
Occasionally swap your coffee for green tea, which tends to have a gentler impact on blood sugar levels.

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