How to consume Bananas, Oatmeal With Milk without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as nuts, seeds, or a boiled egg to your meal. Protein helps slow down the digestion of carbohydrates.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado slices, chia seeds, or a spoonful of nut butter. Fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Choose Lower Sugar Fruits
Instead of bananas, consider eating berries like strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries alongside your oatmeal. They have less natural sugar and can help mitigate the spike.
Use Water or Unsweetened Almond Milk
Prepare your oatmeal with water or unsweetened almond milk instead of regular milk to reduce the overall carbohydrate content.
Incorporate Fiber
Add high-fiber foods such as flaxseeds, chia seeds, or a handful of raw spinach. Fiber slows the absorption of sugars.
Portion Control
Be mindful of the portion sizes of both the bananas and the oatmeal. Smaller portions will result in a smaller glucose impact.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle cinnamon on your oatmeal and bananas. Cinnamon has been shown to help improve insulin sensitivity.
Consume Whole Oats
Opt for steel-cut or rolled oats instead of instant oatmeal. They have a slower digestion rate, which can help maintain steadier glucose levels.
Monitor Timing
Eat your banana or oatmeal during a meal rather than as a snack. The presence of other foods can help slow down the carbohydrate absorption.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after your meal. Proper hydration can help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

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