How to consume Granola Cereal without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Start by reducing the portion size of granola cereal you consume. Smaller servings can lead to a smaller impact on blood sugar levels.
Add Protein
Include a source of protein such as a boiled egg, Greek yogurt, or nuts like almonds or walnuts. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small handful of seeds like chia or flaxseeds to your meal. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Fiber
Mix your granola with high-fiber foods like oats or add a tablespoon of psyllium husk to help slow digestion and reduce spikes.
Pair with Fresh Fruits
Consider adding low-sugar fruits like berries or an apple to your cereal. The natural fiber in these fruits can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Unsweetened Variants
If possible, select granola cereals that have no added sugars. This can help reduce the spike caused by refined sugars.
Drink Water
Accompany your meal with a glass of water instead of sugary drinks to prevent additional spikes in blood sugar.
Add Non-Dairy Milk
Consider using unsweetened almond or soy milk, which can have a lower impact on blood sugar compared to regular dairy milk.
Monitor Timing
Try eating granola cereal as part of a balanced breakfast rather than as a snack, as your body's insulin response is usually more efficient earlier in the day.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating. This can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently, reducing spikes.

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