How to consume Bananas without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Combine your banana with a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts to slow down the absorption of sugar.
Add Healthy Fats
Eat the banana with healthy fats like avocado slices, chia seeds, or a spoonful of nut butter to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods
Include fiber-rich foods like oatmeal, chia pudding, or a small serving of beans when consuming a banana to reduce the sugar spike.
Consume Smaller Portions
Instead of eating a whole banana, try eating half or a smaller portion to reduce the amount of sugar intake.
Choose Less Ripe Bananas
Opt for less ripe (greener) bananas as they contain less sugar compared to fully ripe bananas.
Stay Active Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity such as a brisk walk or gentle stretching after eating a banana to help your body manage the sugar intake.
Drink Water
Drinking a glass of water before or with your banana can help dilute the sugar in your bloodstream.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon on your banana; it has been known to help manage blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Vegetables
Eat the banana as part of a meal that includes non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, bell peppers, or tomatoes to help balance the sugar.
Monitor Timing
Consume the banana as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to slow down sugar absorption.

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