How to consume Granola Bars without glucose spikes
Choose Low-Sugar Granola Bars
Opt for granola bars that are low in added sugars. Check the ingredients list and choose those sweetened with natural alternatives like stevia or monk fruit.
Add Fiber
Eat your granola bar with a serving of high-fiber foods like an apple or pear. Fiber can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Protein
Pair the granola bar with a source of protein, such as Greek yogurt, a handful of nuts, or a boiled egg. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Adding healthy fats like avocado slices or a small portion of cheese can help moderate the glucose spike.
Drink Water
Stay hydrated by drinking a glass of water with your granola bar. This can help your body process sugars more efficiently.
Portion Control
Pay attention to serving sizes. Eating a smaller portion of the granola bar can reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar.
Exercise
Engage in light physical activity such as a walk after eating. Exercise helps your muscles use glucose more effectively.
Choose Whole Foods
When possible, select granola bars made with whole ingredients like oats, nuts, and seeds, and avoid those with refined grains and sugars.
Homemade Options
Consider making your own granola bars using low-sugar recipes and incorporating ingredients like oats, nuts, seeds, and a small amount of natural sweeteners like honey or dates.
Monitor Blood Sugar
Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating granola bars to understand how they affect you personally and adjust your intake accordingly.

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